Trail permit thoughts

[bearrassler]

I don't mind paying my share but the problem with higher priced permits is that you have less people who are buying them. I know that in NW Ontario where I have ridden quite a bit their income has dropped with the higher priced trail permits so much that they have had to close trails and cut back on grooming because of lack of funds. We need more registrations to increase our funding rather than just raising the prices every few years.

Trail permits in all US states are under-priced.

Sorry guys, they are.

Imagine how many more land-owners would offer up their land for new trails if they were getting bigger checks. Perhaps we could have more off-trail fields to play in or properties to hunt on during deer season.

I live in SE Michigan and I bought my Ontario permit before my Michigan version. The northern Ontario trails are heavenly and far more El Nino proof.

Ding Ding Ding bearrassler you are 100% correct. Soon this is going to be just another TAX and who knows where the money will go. Just like social security. Not everyone that has a snowmobile has a silver spoon and the majority do not own brand new sleds.
