Trails are groomed

Must obey trail etiquette

–----stay to the right side of the trails

–----No excessive speed on the trails

–----Use hand signals

–----Do Not spin your track sending snow, dirt or rocks on the following sleds/riders

–----Be patient with other riders as this is a family ride day.

–----Do Not showoff, hotdog or ride reckless, there are too many people present on this ride for stunting.

Well that was a great 120km ride at the Saturday ASA Jamboree in Westlock.

Special Thanks from Tri-County Snowmobile Club to the Westlock "Pembina Drift Busters Snowmobile Club" for an excellent Jamboree AGAIN. I feel this is about the best location for a Jamboree, it is drivable from anywhere in Alberta with an excellent trail system (full ride was 150km). The hospitality was excellent. Well Done!

If you missed the ride you missed a good time on the trails with Poker Hands, warm-up shelters, hot lunch and drinks and lots of visiting. Best part was most of the trails were groomed perfect.

We saw 3 Tri-County Groups riding and with 500 sleds could not see everyone so we had a good TCSC club turn out.

Thanks to Big Red for being our guide, to the othes in our group that made the day special, Nick B; Rob D; Dale R; Ken & Tisha G; Pat; Ivan, Tracey, Alannah & Nicole L. Great group.

There are lots of pictures of the weekend but I will just add two favorites
