Boundary Road is a popular off-road trail located in Durham Region. While this trail is open to the public year-round, there is an agreement between off-road clubs and snowmobile clubs that during the winter months (December to March), the trail is groomed for snowmobiles. This means that it’s important to avoid using Boundary Road during the winter months to help keep the trails open for everyone.
During the winter months, snowmobile clubs invest a lot of time and resources into grooming the trails for their use. This includes packing down the snow, removing obstacles, and creating a smooth and safe surface for snowmobiles to travel on. However, when off-roaders use these groomed trails, they can damage the surface and undo all of the hard work that snowmobile clubs have put in.
In addition, snowmobile clubs and off-road clubs have an agreement in place to help ensure that everyone can use the trails safely and responsibly. By sticking to this agreement and avoiding using Boundary Road during the winter months, off-roaders can help maintain a positive relationship between these two groups of enthusiasts.
It’s also worth noting that using Boundary Road during the winter months can be dangerous. Snowmobiles travel at high speeds and may not be able to see or avoid off-road vehicles on the trail. This can lead to accidents and injuries, which is something that everyone wants to avoid.
So, if you’re planning to visit Boundary Road, make sure to check the trail conditions with your local clubs and avoid using it during the winter months. This will help ensure that the trails remain open for everyone and that everyone can enjoy the outdoors safely and responsibly. Remember, we’re all in this together, so let’s work together to keep our trails open and accessible for everyone!
