The Buckhorn District Snowmobile Club is based in Buckhorn, Ontario, about 25 minutes north of the City of Peterborough. We are a member club of the Ontario Federation of Snowmobile Clubs, and are one of seven clubs making up OFSC District 2.
BDSC volunteers and grooming staff maintain approximately 165 kilometres of trails through varying terrain, from the east shore of Chemong Lake in the south, to the Gooderham area in the north.
The bulk of our trails are in the Municpality of Trent Lakes, in an area of beautiful Canadian Shield forest once known as The Five Points Trail System – a throwback to the earliest days of organized snowmobiling.
To the west, our trails join those of the Twin Mountains Snowmobile Club in the Bobcaygeon area. On the east side of our system our trails connect with those of the Paudash Trail Blazers and the Stoney Lake Snoriders, leading to the Wilberforce and Apsley areas.

The BDSC volunteer gang were out on Wednesday along with an excavator and operator (Steve) from Buckhorn Sand and Gravel(BSG).
We had a great turnout!!
Huge thank you to Jeff, Randy, Perry, Don, Jim, John, Mark, Gord and Dan!!👍💪👊
The BDSC team split into 2 groups so we could tackle the trail from both ends and meet in the middle. We took care of the small stuff and cut the big fallen trees down to 6-10' lengths so the excavator could make easy work of them and keep moving up the trail. We left the hangars and leaners for the excavator to deal with and Steve made light work of them. It was a good day!!
We put in a longer day(6-8 hours), as we had the excavator, and we cleared over 4kms! We have now cleared the E211 from the clubhouse to our friends at Upper Canada Stone at the end of Quarry Road!👍
We noticed that the ice storm damage seemed to be less the further north we went. Hopefully that trend continues.🤞
We are planning to go out next Wednesday July 9th.
Time and location is still to be determined. We will update when we know.

The BDSC volunteers were out Wednesday clearing some more trail.
Thank you to Perry, Randy, Bayne, Mark, Jim and Gord!💪
We came across a massive tangle that involves many large fallen hardwood trees. We will need excavator assistance on that section. We have one booked for next Wednesday.
We will be going out next Wednesday July 2nd.
We will meet at the clubhouse at 0800.
Any help is appreciated!!

The BDSC boys were out yesterday.
Thank you to Bayne, Bruce, Mark, John, Gord and Dan for coming out on a hot day!👍💪
Trail is now clear from the clubhouse to the east side of Quarry Road. However, the gate to that property took a good hit and will need some love.
We will be going out next Wednesday June 25.
We will meet again at the clubhouse at 0830.
Any help is appreciated!!

Between the ages of 12 and 15? Over the age of 15 and do not possess a valid Ontario Drivers License?
Then you need to successfully complete an Ontario-approved Snowmobile Safety Course before riding on public lands.
