Seems like a tremendous amount of work every season regardless. I like my method of putting fuel in and riding. End of season put in trailer and repeat next winter!

Last year Dec 21 - 23, 23 up to LSJ, was quite nice.

Snowmobilecountry.ca announced the official trail opening today in St-Zénon /St-MIchel area. You can take a look at what will be groomed on the link below. Also you can click the small red "see on map" link to have a quick visual of opened trails https://www.snowmobilecountry.ca/en/conditions/ I suggest you to check the link often because it may expand on St-Michel side soon... Look very good for christmas Holidays!!!

The one and only reason they use pop rivet's is cost . A few cent's per rivet as opposed to several dollar's. As for keeping the bolts in use heavy grade lock tight , or the old fashioned way , tying wire , or even better both methods...

Engineers are tasked with using the cheapest solution that is practical for the application. Pop rivets on a manufacturing line are installed in seconds and they do the job and cost almost nothing compared to a lot of the other fasteners mentioned here. Serviceability is low on the priority list for the manufacturers.

These guys are ready to go o
