The command center is ready to support the 23 riders scheduled to leave on Sunday, February 6th, 2011 from Searchmont, Ontario just north of Sault St. Marie, MI /ONT. As we all know snowmobiling is a dangerous activity, in fact one of the riders scheduled to ride in this years event was injured with broken ribs last weekend when another on-coming rider hit him and caused him to run into a tree. We feel it is critical to take all precautions and safety measures to successfully complete these adventures.
