Given the reality you reference combined with the fact that landowners are closing more and more land how long do you think it will be before snowmobiling in the Lakes Region isn't practical? Maybe I'm being too pessimistic but with heavy development occurring in the area in conjunction with land closures it just seems like re-routing trails will become impossible in the not too distant future.
