well jason stay away from wawa i heard its not real good over that way.i know the north is not very good this year at all.i have seen a few reports saying its getting better,but it seems to be very limited areas.most are riding over my way,i live in mitchell which is just north of london on.its only 1 1/2 hours from port huron mi.we have been blessed here this year with lake effect.most guys are dropping here in mitchell and heading north to owensound area,and further to tobermory.the trails in district 9 have been perfect,we now have a good 1 1/2 feet of hard packed base,and we have had fresh powder falling everynight.i have been up to owensound and back it was awesome,and there is alot of playing areas along the way you will find.alot of the people have been staying in wiarton,i have never been but apparently the food is great and they bend over backwards catering to sledders.but if you are still wanting to go north i would really check it out close as the conditions havn't been really good compared to what they normally are.i know you will not be disapointed around here,i have put just shy of 2000 miles on my poo this year and i havn't used my trailer once and its all been in district 9,right from my garage lol.[/b]
Hmmm, thats what I kind of thought which was the reason for heading north farther into the back country. Thanks for the tip :wink: , I know how frustating it is to have yahoos negate all no trespassing signs to track up an untouched field.You will find most of southern Ontario is farmland. There is very little public land so off-trail riding isn't recommended. You will be trespassing and quite likely pissing off one of the landowners. District 9 has had it's share of grief this year with landowners wanting to kick the sled trails off of their property for a few different reasons. The local clubs have had to work hard to keep the trails in place this year. If you ride in Districts 5 & 9 please stay on the trails. They are great riding anyway.[/b]
Great info, Thanks Team Wiszhey jason once you get a little north it turns into alot of bush trails and hilly ground as well.once you get into the owensound area it turns into alot like the north.you have many options from owensound.you can go east along georgian bay it has a real mixed bag of terrain,if you head north towards tobermory i've heard it awesome trails through the bush.and i know that owensound area has a bunch of off trail play.i have never gone off trail but i know alot of folks do and its usually hydro lines they run(so i've heard)also if you head east towards collingwood there seems to be alot of off trail riding over that way.i have seen some pics from there from last weekend and the snow was really deep.my buddies gade was missing with him standing on it.as far as snow we got lots,and the closer you get to owensound the deeper it gets. there are a few places around the area that i have heard good reports about. the most highly recommended is the waterview in wiarton,they do everything for sledders.breakfast and supper.they have hot tubs in your rooms.and i've heard their rates are pretty good to. another one i think its closer to owensound is the falls inn they have a web site thefallsinn.com i really don't think you guys will be disapointed at all.the trails are in great shape here,and i know you will have a great time.alot of peeps have came this way instead this year because of the lack of snow in the north,and every one i talked to said they will be back again,and they had no idea the trails were this good here. satisfaction garanteed[/b]
