THE REAL VALUE OF TRAIL PERMITS

But what's the real value?
Essentially a permit carries three member ben
plus an exciting added value program, called th
Smart Card. Benefit one is groomed trails - for
16 weeks, depending on your location and mob
No, trails won't always be perfect, but overall yo
still get the most consistent snowmobiling in No
America. The Ontario Federation of Snowmobil
Clubs (OFSC) estimates that annual operating
overhead runs to $343 for each kilometer of gro
trail. So your $100 trail permit actually repays y
many times over in levered dollars spent to groo
hundreds of miles of trails you ride this season.
Benefit two is trail access. 286 snowmobile clubs
have land use permissions allowing OFSC members
to ride 35,000 kilometers of trails. Without a permit,
you're not a member and may be subject to trespass
charges. Moreover, trespassers may encounter legal
and insurance hassles if involved in an accident,
damage or injury while riding on an OFSC trail.
Besides, where else can you ride?
Benefit three is personal safety. Stats indicate that
97% of snowmobiling fatalities occur off -trail. I won
how many of these victims were trying to save $1
OFSC trails are as safe as snowmobiling gets M
they are engineered, groomed, maintained, marked
and patrolled for safety. So why risk riding anywher
else?
If you travel beyond your own club's trail system, a
$100 amortized over a full season of snowmobiling
is an inexpensive passport to unlimited touring
anywhere, anytime. For touring snowmobilers,
improvements like better linkages, mapping,
signage, hospitality services and more consistent
grooming is value far beyond the price. The new
TOP Trail System is an added bonus. Kilometer
for kilometer, regular riders are paying pennies for
great trails. Compare costs: a child's hockey
season or a winter's downhill skiing or a week in
the sun!
But what's the value for casual, local and family
riders? Unless you're prepared to snowmobile
cross-country, you'll probably use OFSC trails
just to get to grandma's or to go for brunch, so
e same trail benefits apply to you. Like roads,
trails are for both local and long distance use.
bout the s, ocal by-laws, safety concerns and good
piece neighbourliness should discourage riding on private
d steep. property, town streets, farmer's fields, unmarked Takes
and rivers, and along roads and highways. And it's

results in tragedy. You can avoid these dangers and

Over 400 businesses are participating in the Sled
Smart Card. These range from accommodations and
restaurants to car rental companies and long distance
carriers. In some cases, the member benefit can

members receive added value anytime. Even if they
don't snowmobile very much.

member will receive a 1995 pocket directory.
e Meanwhile, bright orange Sled Smart decals at
establishments along the trails flag their participation.
The Sled Smart Card has proven so popular that a
special Landowner Sled Smart Card has been
introduced so property owners can benefit too.
Yes, the $100 trail permit is a good deal. Priced ten
dollars less than Quebec's permit, it offers
considerably more value. And best of all, the price is
fixed for next season too.
