For any riders contemplating a trip to Ontario on the free weekend, be advised that the dates have been moved from the Family Day Long Weekend to Saturday/Sunday Feb 3 & 4 2018 (2 days only this year). The Try Our rails Permit is valid from 12:00am Saturday Feb 3, 2018 to 11:59pm Sunday Feb 4, 2018.
There is no cost for the permit but you MUST go online at www.ofsc.on.ca to register and print your permit. Ontario legislation requires every sled to display a permit while riding OFSC Prescribed trails. Hence the need for a permit.
Go to the permit site and create a profile, register your sled and "buy" a Try Our Trails permit. Don't forget to print the permit and carry it with you. If you are extending your stay you can also purchase a Multi-Day permit. It is $35.00 per day (minimum 2 consecutive days) and you would do this in addition to the Try Our Trails Permit. Note the 2 consecutive days condition. You can not buy the Friday/Monday. You would need to purchase at least 2 days on either side of the free weekend.
As long as the sled is properly registered, licensed and insured in its home jurisdiction you are good to go.
