Stay safe on the ice, and the trails
Winter is here, which means people will be itching to get out on their snowmobile or onto the ice. While early snow is a boon for snowmobile riders (grant-in-aid trails open Dec. 1; keep safety top of mind) it can mask thin ice and impede ice creation. Thinking of heading out? Check the ice frequently and have all your safety gear.
