    Another option could be to head north a bit to Martins for a rustic adventure stay

    Martin is a cool , off the beaten path kinda place. Rustic yes, but food and hospitality are great !  Cabins only,no lodge. We have a group of 8 staying there in January. First time we headed there the groomer was down and it was a bitch getting there and we took a road back to Clova the next morning. I believe it's just under 30 miles from Clova

    I put a set of Beamtech H13’s on my brothers turbo.  Huge difference.  They were just under $40 USD on Amazon. The Beamtechs got good comments on Dootalk.  Hope this saves you some searching.

    I have my question/concern out the the FCMQ.  I will post what I find out.
    I was thinking the only way day by day permits would work is via a document you could print or store on your phone .

    GSX800 got a reaction from Snobeeler in FCMQ interactive map question on accuracy   
    One last pointer if you’re using your phone. Put it airplane mode to conserve the battery.  When you lose cell service or it is very weak, your phone will go to full power to try and maintain connectivity. This will use up the battery pretty fast. The app will work just fine to tell you where you are with no connectivity.   You will have a black cloud in the lower right meaning you are not connected to the internet, so things like grooming delay, or gas/lodging functions will not work.  Keep your phone warm to further conserve battery, either next to your body, or in a heated handlebar bag.  If in the bag, keep it right next to the heating element.

    I have the recessed latch on my Blizzard on both the front and back.  No issues at all.  My buddy has the cam lock type, no issues with that either. I’m not sure it much matters...to me anyhow.  I do like the man door and use it all the time.  Gas doors, just once in a great while. If you can, get the torsion sprin assist on the front door too.  The older I get, the heavier mine gets.

    It's 158 miles according to your screen shot.  Call the Ski Doo tank 10 gallons (it's actually 10.6 on an XS/XP) plus you 3.9 extra gas.  So just call it 13 gallons all together.  If you can get 12.2 mpg you will make it with about 1.5 gallons left.  Or you can stop at the sawmill (cash only)and top off, then, no worries.

    Drinks and Dinner, no one rides for free!  Of course there were other versions back in the 70's, but this is a family friendly site.
