Trails

The trails arent open yet, but you can follow where they normally would go. Also get a municipal map of the area and find any areas that are non-leased crown land you should be able to go sled in those areas without issues.

Read the OP again. And if you need to, read it again.

Just trying to promote legal land use, comes from being one of those who used work towards keeping routes open for everyone else for no thanks.

Nah that's not what you're doing...

There are lots of places to "legally" ride that don't require a sno man pass. Some decent snow out around Camp Hughes and along 340. Ditches aren't the best could use a little more but it's ok riding last couple days but too cold right now. Next week looks promising.

Snowmobile club

Joining a club could be a great way to find out about riding areas and other sledding related info. Clubs are always looking for volunteers. There is a meeting Sunday @ 5:00 for the Sprucewoods Snowdrifters at Waggle Springs Fish & Game building in Shilo.

I’m not involved now at all but joining an organization that promotes a sport is the correct thing to do and the best way to learn new areas while meeting like minded people and staying safe. So don’t tell me what my motives are thank you.

Why should they have to join an organization?? So because they don't join something there not doing it correctly?? Not everyone wants to be in a club nor do they need to be. It was a simple question on where they could legally ride. If you don't know anywhere then move along.

By joining an organization you would learn where to ride legally and contribute towards the work that selfless volunteers do to promote the sport for everyone. It is a win win. Common sense.
