I'm curious, the interactive trail guide doesn't show all the club trails. At least not what I remember heading to Plevna with all the lake crossings. Likely just because no snow and lakes aren't safe. Or other reasons?

Tell that to the side by sides and four wheelers, they don't seem to give a s*** what the conditions of the snowmobile trails are they're still out there tearing them up. That's why I'm not buying a permit this year, first time in 40 years that I'm not going to buy a permit. There's just way too many side by sides and four wheelers on the trails these days being that there is no actual law or legislation on the books to keep them off the trails it appears there's nothing we can do nobody's willing to step up and tell them to stay the f*** off. And you say what you want but if those Trails weren't groomed they would not be on them because eventually the snow would get so deep that it would even be impossible for side by sides and four wheelers. Unfortunately snowmobiles require flat groom surfaces to make an enjoyable ride that's why we all pay the $300 a year for a permit. Only to have these arrogant ignorant entitled asshats tearing the trails up. Yesterday I watched a pickup truck going down one of the E trails, when I walked out onto the trail to have a look you could also see Side by Side Tracks so these people clearly don't give a s*** because there's no repercussion. There needs to be legislation that writes it into law that snowmobilers have the snowmobile trails from a prescribed date and if you are on them on anything other than a snowmobile you get a $5,000 fine there needs to be a deterrent not only is it just flat out Dickie but it's dangerous you get 8 or 10-in ruts from side by side tire tracks it can be dangerous on a corner when you can't steer in somebody's coming straight at you. I've noticed a massive increase in the amount of four wheelers side by sides and even pick up trucks that are using the snowmobile trails. Also the Hastings heritage multi-use Trail is ridiculous it absolutely defies logic to allow people to their dogs, cross country ski and snowshoe, dog sledding horseback riding four wheeling side by sides or whatever it absolutely is ridiculous that the snowmobile trail in certain areas are multi-use meaning anybody can be on there so you come flying around the corner at 60 km an hour even and there's some lady on Cross Country Skis can't get out of the way in time she shouldn't even be on the bloody Trail. Or old ladies walking their little Frou Frou dog letting them s*** in the middle of the trail it's ridiculously dangerous you wouldn't go walking your dog on the 401 that rail trail in winter time is like a super highway for snowmobiles any interaction with an animal or a human and a machine is not going to end well.

Thanks to all the folks that came to our AGM and trail day. We had a great day. Please post your pictures in the comments. We had around 20 volunteers come out. A big thank you to the Lakeside Inn Motel, Restaurant&Bar for an outstanding buffet breakfast and meeting spot. ... See MoreSee Less

Great job! I noticed that section of trail is missing from the interactive trail guide. Is there anything I can do to help get it back on the map?

Thank you to all the volunteers!

Thank you! We couldn't make it this year.

The work continues year round fellow sledders.

Here is another gate installed on the E101 just north of the lookout. The trail is closed for ATVs from Brown's campground south to Bon Echo Park. Please do not pass these barriers as you are trespassing on private property and run the risk of being charged and the loss of the trail for snowmobile season. We are constantly working with landowners throughout the year to improve the overall quality of the trails, so please respect them when their gates are closed for the off-season.
