Stay tuned for the next one in a riding area near you.

Great posts guys and thanks for weighing in.
As President of the BCSF, it is a battle to get people to join and support snowmobiling in BC.
The BC Gov't has no appetite to introduce a mandatory annual fee for sleds. Trust me on this...I've sat in enough Ministers offices in Victoria and this...
You can get Amsoil and Wholesale pricing by going to AMSOIL Oil and AMSOIL Filter Products. Your One Stop Shop for AMSOIL / AMZOIL and then signing up as a 'preferred account'. Amsoil will ship right to your door from their warehouse in Edmonton.

You are correct. There is another club in Kamloops but they decided to leave the BCSF and join the other guys. It seems not all the members are happy with that move and inquired to us about setting up another club under the BCSF once again. I just wanted to acknowledge it and let anyone know...
Last Thurs Nov 11 I was up there and it was probably about 1' at the cabins. With the weather coming our way...it should get a lot better. Don't get off the trail on the way up to the cabins...I guarantee damage!!. Barry tells me there is pretty decent coverage up top but there are the odd...
Hey guys. We've had a bunch of inquiries from the Loops about sledders wanting a new snowmobile club organized. The BC Snowmobile Federation would love to have you guys on board. If you are interested, get a hold of me.
Thanks

Good Avy courses going on all over the place. The Black Tusk Club is hosting 2 courses in January. Both courses are 2 days and pretty intense. The instructor, Niko, is awesome and he relates really well to sledders.
For more info, contact info@btsc.ca
Thanks

Greetings all. The snow is dumping hard and furious on Brohm at the moment. Freezing levels are down about 2000' at the moment and there is good coverage from Mid-Station (3500') and up to the cabins.
Sorry for the lack of a webcam. We're having some technical problems with the modem that...
Good post Barry and really sorry to hear about the cash situation of running your club.
You speak about Gov't grants...are you aware of the 'Community Gaming Grants' available? My club (Black Tusk snowmobile club) based out of Squamish has been successful with these types of grants over the...

Hi.
Best advice I can give you is to contact Brett (owner of Bulldog Sled Decks) based out of Chilliwack. He will definitely know for sure. I have an 8' box on my GMC Sierra 3500 and my sled deck has the 'beaver tail' option on it and it extends out past the tailgate by 24". I've never had a...
Amsoil Interceptor is definitely the way to go. You can get 'wholesale' pricing on the entire Amsoil line by signing up as a 'preferred account'. The BC Snowmobile Federation now has a relationship with Amsoil. You can goto AMSOIL Oil and AMSOIL Filter Products. Your One Stop Shop for AMSOIL...
Very good question!! Best one I've seen yet...let me see if I can answer it for you.
The Benefits & Programs developed over the years by the BCSF members far exceed any of the other recreational motorized organizations. I encourage you to visit our Federation website at BC Snowmobile...
Hi Curtis.
Clearly the programs and benefits offered by the BCSF can not be handled by VOLUNTEERS. Whereas the minimal prorgrams and benefits of ABC can easily be handled by their dedicated volunteers. I don't question your opinion on how good the ABC organization is, however, the 'untruths'...
Hi Fernie...thought I would chime in on your first comment in regards to recognizing the BCSF trail permit and club membership.
A BCSF club membership has an attached season's pass and has been called a 'snowmobile permit' forever. It allows associated BCSF clubs to ride at other BCSF trails...
