Here in the U.P. we've got some pretty nice trails and its a good idea to stay on them for all kinds of reasons. This guy apparently disagreed or couldn't read the signs. We can all agree that he was lucky to come out of it with only a little bit of damage to his machine--- things could've been alot worse, eh?

A special welcome message for our winter visitors

Ours is a friendly, inviting community. We want you to enjoy your motel or hotel stay, your restaurant meals, your shopping, gaming and other activities and especially enjoy your ride on our great trails! And as you make your plans we ask that you please give preference to the SSMSA Business Members who directly support the Sault area snowmobile trail system! These businesses are heavily invested in your favorite winter recreation and their membership dues and advertising money accounts for much of the polish and quality of the excellent trails here.

Further, the high-quality color TRAIL MAPS that we update and print each year as a FREE service, are paid for by our member businesses and advertisers. You can help us thank them by giving them preference when you make your decisions about accommodations, meals, shopping and activities.  Click here for a complete list of our business members and map advertisers. And when you take out that check book or credit card, tell them that the Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association sent you!
