10 Ontario Snowmobile Pages to Like This Winter

Who to follow to stay up to date with what's going on on #ontariosnowtrails this winter

With snow now covering most of Ontario, social media feeds are alive with postings of long awaited first rides, snowmobilers packing trails and of course, groomers on the move to trail heads. It won’t be long now until we’re all out riding the fantastic Ontario Snow Trails! 

In today’s busy, advertisement-filled social media feeds you sometimes miss out on the good stuff. In fact, believe it or not but less than 20% of fans actually see all of the posts from a page they like. Just because you click ‘like’ doesn’t guarantee you’re going to see every post—I know you wouldn’t want to miss out on an epic ride or reports of a t-rex sized snow storm! So here are a 10 people to follow to get the scoop on the snow fun this winter. Tip: Make sure you click the ‘follow’ button beside like on the respective pages. 

1 - The Groomer Guy

Based out of Dubreuilville, Ontario in OFSC District 13, just a "short northern drive" north of Wawa, Luc Levesque blogs about his snowmobile excitement almost 24/7. Luc runs the Kwiki Mart and is also President of the Club Dubreuilville Allouettes Snowmoible Club and has logged thousands of hours in the seat of their New Holland tractors. Luc’s club boasts one of the longest seasons in the province and incredible riding!

2 - Shelby Mahon

Shelby is known in the snowmobile world not only as a co-host on SnowTrax / Dirt Trax but she is also a fantastic photographer who freelances for Snowx365. Shelby is a former CSRA racer and enjoys backcountry riding as much as exploring the trails in the Parry Sound area. She just ‘leveled up’ her XRS… it should be a good winter!

This page delivers exactly what it's name describes; it's experience based content that makes you say to yourself “What A Ride” that is. Many of us are not just snowmobilers, and often participate in riding other machines when the snow melts making this page worth the like for riders. If you only ride in the winter, it’s worth a like too as there is lots of sled jazz. Like the page and it won’t be long before you have an ATV, Bike or Boat.

10 - Me

I’d be a fake if I wrote about things that weren’t authentic. I would like to think my Instagram pictures and Facebook feeds demonstrate my passion for snow and riding, if not the type of articles I write should. In all seriousness—when I ride, I film and take pictures and I really enjoy sharing great sled news.
