I took this pic about half hour ago out the front door. It's snowing harder now. Probably get 40cm over the next two days. In east end Barrie. Glad I'm at home today but not looking forward to driving the 400 to work tomorrow.

Not likely when the LES keeps shifting further south.

Maybe but it seems to be shifting further south every hour. Its pretty well stopped snowing in Barrie now.

 

Edit- looks like a streamer might pick up off Georgian bay now.

We already had close to a foot and another 6-8" this morning and was still snowing. Might see another 20cms by Sat-Sun. It looks like a few of the inner trails off Pinery were groomed as well. Wife and I went from the house to Kinmount on Monday and the trail was mint

I was talking to a guy this morning at CTC. He said it took 2hrs to get from T.O. to Barrie. A bad day for me is 1.5hrs. 2 Hrs is beyond my patience level. Not looking forward to tomorrow. It's starting snowing here again, not as heavy as this morning. That streamer has really got the 400 slowed between Wonderland and Barrie.

Blah blah blah..Same old shit people say every year.  Last I checked you can't ride sleds on frost.  If it froze up in November, cool, but now its time for snow.  

Are you volunteering to go work on getting the groomer out of the mess when it gets stuck because the ground / swamp is still not frozen. You can't ride sleds on snow covered bogs very well either.

Pretty intense approaching Barrie, more white outs and in the day light very hard to see when everything is white.  1:40 coming home.

maybe 20-25cm in the driveway

I'm surprised Liberal Steve didn't exercise one of his 140 sick days today....

Its all in place now,  We will be grooming part of the 4 lane they prebuilt while doing this part,  its quite a sight in person,

any idea how much of the hwy is built so far?  I assume much is a new path through the forests that you can't see from 69.

Rich are you apart of the club still?
