On the way home from our Family Day Holiday, I pulled over to check out one of my favourite trails in Ontario. I unloaded the REV XP and took each of my family members for a quick ride. I knew the previous day's rain would over flow a swamp or two and end any plans for a lengthy ride. So, with one sled, I shuttled between passengers to show my family this great trail.
In the summer months, this is where we get gas for our boat on the Severn River. Today, I parked the truck+snowmobile trailer there, and used it as a staging area.
These snowbanks weren't here in July!
You just got to love the scenery when you ride in the Canadian Shield. South of Severn Bridge, the land is flatter and there's farm land. Once you get to to this point, the granite dominates the landscape, and the terrain undergoes a drastic change!
Lots of rolling hills and turns......
Above and below:......more hills and turns...and lots of trees.....
To groom in these tight trails, look in the background and you'll see an "old school groomer" the simple yet effective narrow type that used to be pulled by Alpines.
UH-OH.....time to turn back.........that creek is flowing.....one of the big challenges for the clubs in this area is the wetlands......they don't always freeze up quickly.....and when there's a rain or a thaw.......the water starts to move and change things......
