All snowmobile trails in Muskoka closed along with vast majority in surrounding area

SHARE ON: Photo credit: www.Pixabay.com While the warm weather in Muskoka is good news for many, don’t count snowmobilers as part of that group. According to the Ontario Federation of Snowmobile Clubs’ (OFSC) interactive trail guide, all of the sledding trails in Muskoka and the vast majority in the surrounding area have been closed. “Unfortunately for every snowmobiler, spring never fails to come in March,” President of the Muskoka Sno-Bombers Kevin Alexander says. The warm weather and rain we’ve seen this week have “knocked the snow levels down,” according to Alexander. He adds that bodies of water and swamps are softening and creeks are now flowing, making the conditions on the trails unsafe for riding. 

Hundreds in the community call for Bracebridge council to do more to protect popular shared trail

SHARE ON: Photo credit: www.pexels.com A temporary solution has been thought-up by Bracebridge council, but the Muskoka Field Naturalist Club is hoping more protection is given to the trail that’s affectionately called the “Chickadee Trail.” The trail is 600 metres running west to east between the Henry Marsh and the Trans-Canada Pipeline. Bracebridge council decided last week that a new snowmobile-only trail will be made adjacent to the existing multi-use one. Thanks to help from the Muskoka Sno-Bombers Inc. snowmobile club the trail was carved out and is currently being groomed. Parks and Trails Foreperson for the Town of Bracebridge Gillian Mitchell explains 400 metres of the Chickadee Trail will now be exclusive to those wanting to sight-see.
