Your best choice would be Lost Creek Road, the Spray Lakes Sawmill road that our club has an agreement with SLS to use and groom when they are not logging off of it.
You access this road - as it is not a designated trail - best from the Cataract Creek parking lot/trailhead. Proceed West from...
Thanks for your words. Please PM me and we will find a way to get that donation from you.......or even go to the website and become a member - or contribute through a Grouser Bar Sponsorship on the website as well. Thank you for whatever you are comfortable giving!

The thanks go to Glen and his team of committed Trail Stewards. I will forget someone for sure if I try and name them all, but Snowcat operator Darryl deserves special mention, as he put in a lot of seat time to set those trails up for the Rally.
For me, 90 minutes. Go Calgary, to Okotoks, on to Black Diamond, to Longview. Take Hwy 541 from Longview, (north side of Esso) and travel 40 kms to Hwy 940, then South 12.5 kms To Cataract.
The law does allow for tracked vehicles “that are exclusively or chiefly made to operate on snow or ice”. Please refer to my previous post quoting the current law, or look it up yourself - as I did - in the P.L.A.R. Act.
Ronaha, it is not that either Glen or I “do not want them there”, it is the law. The law is there for a reason. If one does not like the law, work to get it changed.
Wouldn't be caught dead on a NDP payroll.......
My take on this trails discussion is that I have seen - over twenty years now - designated snowmobile trails destroyed by vehicles other than snowmobiles on them. We can get into the details if you would like, but after Waiparous, Ghost, &...
skegpro - your level of ignorance and incomprehension is unbelievable. Please, operate on a designated snowmobile trail within a Snow Vehicle P.L.U.Z. with an OHV/ATV/SxX with tracks and get ticketed, I would love to see your arguments before a judge.

Section 177 AR 187/2011 PUBLIC LANDS ADMINISTRATION REGULATION89
"(k) “snow vehicle” means a motor vehicle designed andequipped to be driven exclusively or chiefly on snow orice or both;"
Right here in your post - read the PLAR - the definition of a snow vehicle is there - a vehicle that can not be operated on anything else other than snow. An OHV with tracks was designed, and can, operate on muskeg, mud, dirt, and snow - but not exclusively snow.
Operating an OHV on a designated Snowmobile Trail -it is all in the regulations in the document provided above, all you have to do is read the ENTIRE document to understand it, not cherry pick parts.
I'll help:

"nothing definitive that states an wheeled OHV converted to a tracked machine aka snow vechile isn't allowed on the trail."
What is definitive is that there are "OHV's" and "Snow Vehicles" separately listed in the Kananaskis Country Regulations. OHV's are allowed in some areas, including if...
