Well a lot of good conversation going on. This is what this site is all about. As far as the SxS thing goes while I like the trail pass idea there are more places then not that all you can do is run roads. That is why I was told they are called routes and not trails. I think it would benefit both sports if the SxS and sled clubs work together. I think in some cases that is what's happening but not all.I have no problem with the price increases as things have gone up substantial amounts. I believe all the other states registration is more. As far as the old guys keeping the clubs going in some areas that may work but it's pretty sad that at 55 I am the young guy out brushing. Sure be nice for some youth to get more involved even if it's just one Saturday a year to help brush or mark trails etc. I also think we need to encourage people to register there sled in Wi if they ride in Wi like they use to. I was always told a good chunk of money to maintain trails comes from the gas tax cut they get. The more sleds registered the more money from gas tax.
