Amazing work by the volunteers and OFSC! Thank you for keeping snowmobiling alive and well!

AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR ONTARIO PERMIT BUYERS!
In advance of permit sales kicking off on October 1, we wanted to take a moment to share details of a work effort underway this spring and summer, which will continue throughout the fall and early winter. Since the close of the 2023/2024 season, OFSC Club volunteers have been engaged in the largest trail data project in the history of our Federation. This effort focuses on using precise GPS data generated by our grooming activity to realign our digital trail footprint; with a network the size of ours, you can be sure that volunteers have had a much busier summer than normal. This is still very much a work in progress, and Clubs will spend the fall and early winter finalizing their network alongside the countless gracious landowners in our communities.
As a result, our trail network will look different than it has in past years, particularly at the beginning of the season. It will positively evolve in real-time as trails and updated land use permissions are confirmed as we move closer to the finish line of this project. To ensure volunteers have as much time as possible to firm up their network, we will be launching the Interactive Trail Guide (ITG) and Go Snowmobiling Ontario App on December 1, 2024, which will still provide permit buyers ample time to book trips and plan routes.

Fall fishing is where it is at! Call for vacancies today 705-594-9999

There is still plenty of time to fall in love with fishing!

The approaching autumn months is a popular time for musky fishing. With fewer anglers on the water, you get more opportunities to land that trophy fish!

As cooler weather approaches, muskies bulk up, making them more aggressive and likely to bite. The cooling water temps. push baitfish into shallower areas, bringing muskies closer to the shore and easier to target.

Before heading out, make sure you are up to date on fishing regulations and seasons: ontario.ca/FishingRegulations 📙.
