When we woke up this morning ours sleds and the trail were covered with a blanket of fresh snow. We left our motel on at 7:30 A.M. but we did not make very good time. It was hard to see the markers and find the trail. A few people got stuck but that comes with ski-dooing ( as the Canadians call our snowmobiling). We only traveled 150 miles today but it took us 10 hours. Looking forward to another great day on the sleds tommorrow.

The teams left about 7:40 this morning heading south on OFSC A-Trail toward North Bay, Ontario (about 130 miles). Very windy (40+) with a about a foot of fresh snow, will make for blizzard type conditions today. Temps will be in the twentys with highs around 32F. Windchill and blowing snow  will make visability very low or impossible at times.  Have a safe day out their guys and gals!
