Snochuk is so going to find a way into Renshaw thru here.

I already have a couple ways into Renshaw, not the safest though.
Back to packing 4 cans of fuel.
Some intense terrain in there.
Might be some legal issues in trying that link.
Nice to have a newe area - not gonna cause trouble in it.

 

[niner]

Renshaw will still be accessible like last year just not groomed correct?

Kinda looks like you can do it without crossing in to Wilmore. Question is, do you still have the gas for it?

 

[snochuk]

I can pack a full second tank on my sled.
Personal gas - be heading in on one tank at best.....lol

It should be….this land belongs to free Canadian tax payers. No?

Correct me if I’m wrong here. With real legal government jargon, if some one knows.
Or could call the rcmp on land act BS use

You can ride Renshaw but it is nothing to do with the club you could say and it will be your own responsibility. So I believe no search and rescue, or rescue of any kind like last year

Interesting. Would SaR deploy to other non club managed areas? Is it simply because the trail is "closed" or what's the rationale? Just curious is all

 

[MarkCos]

So the job is to search and then rescue but it has to be in a special place in the back country only ? I’m confused here Brian. Is this with volunteers help type of sar or all of canada’s/ rcmp’s policy’s ?
I was under the impression that Canada/rcmp just can’t leave body’s in the back country cuz it’s not in there area of search and rescue or what ever. lol

 

[blastoff]

Search and rescue can go and get them skiers in restricted areas but not snowmobiling guys go figure

How is it possible that guys have rode places like Mcbride for example for years and have no idea places like the Chaco exist?. It’s only been right there for about 50 million years?. I think my biggest interest in riding has been going to areas that other people didn’t!

 

[lilduke]

Some guys really like thier groomed trails i guess.

Here’s a pic from 50 million years ago. That’s what wiped out the dinosaurs, no avy training…

Or maybe just haven’t been shown locations of these trail heads, and with BC nailing you to the cross for every minor infraction they don’t wanna take a chance of f*cking up

I feel like these days if a guy puts a Mohawk on their helmet and says ‘my land’ to any COs and the like they’d be good lol
