President’s Message: State of the Association
by Rosanne Warner, NYSSA President
president@nysnowmobiler.com
It is HOT!!
Well, we have officially had two days above 90 degrees and I, for one, am ready for winter again. Like
many others out there who enjoy the colder months in upstate, I am not a huge fan of the warmer weather,
especially when it brings humidity, bees, black flies, and other nuisances that come with better weather.
As summer approaches, I have been keeping my eye out on social media for club events and hoping I find
an event post for a grass drag, vintage show or fundraiser, but so far, I have not seen any, but I’ll keep
looking.
With last year's lack of events, I am primed for something – anything snowmobiling in the warm months,
but if nothing arises, at least I can look forward to the return of the Big East Show in the fall.
Lately, on social media, I have seen a lot of posts concerning the removal of the rails from Lake Placid to
Tupper Lake and it seems to be of great interest to others in the snowmobiling community. From what I
can gather, the last of the rails on this section have been removed and over the summer, I hope to take a
ride up to Tupper to walk the trail and see how it turned out.
The railbed has been one place that I can honestly say has not been one of my favorite spots to ride as I
have always been leery of the switches and other riders who do not seem to be able to share the trail.
Whether it is because they are afraid to ride too close to the edge of the trail or because they are simply
trail hogs, I am not sure but with the rails removed, I may take another ride on the trail this coming season.
If you are anything like me, you sometimes daydream while
you are driving along, especially when there is no snow on the
ground. I find myself thinking about where new trails could be
constructed, where ditch banging might be possible and what
hazardous conditions are visible when there is no snow on the
ground. Doing this keeps me thinking of the next season and
where to ride when the snow finally does show up.
Just this morning, I already began the job of planning a ride
when some out of state friends come to visit in February 2022
and I realize that we are actually closer to the end of last
season than we are to the beginning of the next one, but you
know the old saying – there is no time like the present.
No matter what, we all have some more warm weather temperatures to endure as we head into summer,
but if your anything like me, you may be dealing with the heat, but your heart will be thinking of cooler
weather.
Either way, I wish you all a very safe and happy summer and hope to see you all at some upcoming club
events soon! Think snow.

CLUB NEWS
Material Pricing Concerns for Snowmobile Clubs
With the Covid pandemic causing a shortage of wood and plastic
products as well as the transportation industry incurring a shortage of truck
drivers to haul materials to stores and customers, the prices that clubs will
be paying for items such as wood for bridges and sign posts, culverts, and
even trail signs will be quite a lot higher than clubs have been accustomed
to or are financially prepared for. This WILL ultimately hurt clubs who
have major projects this next season and into the future (as industry insiders
are reporting that prices should go down slowly, but not ever back to where
they were pre-Covid times). Budgeting and making every dollar count is
what club officials will need to do more than ever.
Along those same lines, we all obviously see gas and diesel fuel
prices going up weekly as well. Clubs will be relying more on donations
and fundraisers to help offset the material increases when the revenue
coming in from the Trail Fund is, at THIS time, stays the same. Anyone
reading this article should recognize that clubs will be struggling a bit to
cover their higher expenses, and supporting the clubs’ fundraising events is
even more important this coming season.
Clubs’ Funding
During the past week, we have heard from NYS Parks that they intend to change the funding distribution
process. For years now, the NYSSA Trails Committee, as well as the entire Board of Directors, have discussed
potential changes that would work better for a majority of the clubs. The proposal presented to us is still being
thought through on our end, and I expect that NYSSA will be presenting Parks with their suggestions on any
such change to be sure it doesn’t hurt clubs. Again, this is a proposal at this time and any final determination by
Parks will be presented to the Local Sponsors (County or Town representatives, respectively) to notify their
clubs of.
The increase in snowmobile registrations this past year does indicate that there should be a slight
increase in the Trail Funding amount that clubs receive as partial reimbursement from Parks. How much we
don’t know yet, and how it will affect the new proposal is also being considered. Stay tuned for more
information on this situation, as clubs’ funding is an obvious big deal for every snowmobiler…since funding
does affect how the trails are maintained.

The NYSSA Interactive Webmap and Mobile APP
2021-22 Updates are Coming to Both of NYSSA’s Mapping Products
Obviously, the Mobile APP is not selling this time of year. Our goal this upcoming season is to have it
released before November 1st. New trail data will be uploaded to the Webmap for the clubs to review and
change as necessary and is utilized in the Mobile APP from there. All known reroutes during the season as well
as new Unfunded Club Trails can be added by clubs at any time after the new data is ready. The NYSSA
Mobile APP will remain at $4.99 this season.

STATE LAND NEWS
The “Tree-Cutting” Legal Decision
The big topic recently was the NYS Court of Appeals decision against the DEC and APA regarding
“what is timber?” and how this legal blow will affect future snowmobile trail development in the Adirondack
Park on Forest Preserve Land. While we are awaiting final word from the DEC on what their official reading is
on this decision and when they can define a new policy to stay within the confines of the NYS Constitution’s
Article 14, we do know that this will severely deal a blow to the North Hudson-Newcomb-Minerva trail that was
proposed to connect those communities with a Class II Community Connector Snowmobile Trail (which also
would have provided a new hiking trail and a mountain bike trail too). More to come on this subject when the
smoke clears...
Adirondack Rail-Trail News
The rail-trail project work has begun earlier this spring
as soon as the snow base melted, with the plans to have all the
rails and ties removed by the fall of 2021. The hope is the
vendor can handle the project, so next winter season, the rail-
trail will be completely open from Tupper Lake to Lake
Placid for snowmobile traffic. The businesses in the Tri-
Lakes area really benefitted from the rail-trail this year, with
the clubs maintaining doing as well as they did. It can only
get better when all the rail material is finally taken up! Make
plans to visit the Tri-Lakes are when the rail-trail opens.

The Big East Show Returns
Let’s Gather Again, Like Old Times
By John Prusak
Content Director, Snow Goer Magazine
A nd now, for the
rest of the story and
the rest of our lives!
As we as a people
emerge from the fog
that is/was the
COVID-19 era and
resulting shutdowns,
we’re reminded of a
time-worn special
effect in action
movies, where the
hero emerges through
mist or smoke –
transitioning from
hardly visible to
partially obscure to full-on ominous tough guy in a matter of seconds on the screen before us.
That’s us. A year ago, truly, the only known was the unknown. We know now that some of the early panic buying
and the bathing of everything we touched in bleach was an overreach, but as a society, we didn’t know what we
didn’t know. Within society, within communities – heck, within individual families – folks took sides and carved
their own paths for what they felt was right or wrong, from hyper worried cautious to “it’s all a total hoax”
dismissive, with most of us somewhere in between.
Thank God for outdoor activities – like snowmobiling – that allowed us to keep our sanity, enjoy our lives and
social distance with a smile on our faces. Snowmobiling has always been a great escape from daily troubles for
many of us, and it served that role expertly winter. That said, some of the joys of snowmobiling were still affected
– closed borders, shuttered pitstops and cancelled events hurt the social aspect of the sport.
But now, the fog is clearing at last. Folks are emerging from various levels of quarantine – whether government-
or self-imposed – and seeing their friends and neighbors again. Destinations are beckoning, borders are opening,
and folks are looking forward to gathering again with like-minded people.
That includes the Big East Powersports Show in Syracuse. It’s been a staple for northeast snowmobiles in the fall
run-up to riding season since XLTs, Formula Zs, ZRs and Vmaxes were the hot new thing in the mid 1990. After
a stammering start in the Catskills in 1994, the annual showcase and social affair for snowmobilers found its
home in Syracuse since 1995 – at the downtown Oncenter through 2018 and then to the New York State
Fairgrounds on the west end in 2019 before being forced to take a year off last fall.

This just in: The Big East is coming back this year, October 1-3, and will be located in the huge Expo Center on
the Fairgrounds site. Best yet, there will be more to do and see this year than ever before.
For example, arguably snowmobiling’s most famous and socially
engaging rock star – Levi LaVallee – will be spending a couple of
days at the event this fall. Levi has seen and done it all – set world
records for jumping snowmobiles, appeared on the Tonight Show,
dominated the X Games, raced and owned a team in snocross,
made memorable Red Bull videos and so much more. Beyond
that, he’s also very personable and easy to talk to and will be a
great addition to the show.
Also new for 2021 is the “Big East Classic” vintage snowmobile
show – a championship level celebration of the sport’s colorful
history, with some of the best kept and best restored examples
from various brands. This will be far more than a random display
of classic iron; it’s a professionally judged event that’ll easily
feature more than 100 snowmobiles, with trophies available in 14
different categories.
Some of Levi’s appearances, the Big East Classic awards
presentation and much more will take place on the new Snow
Goer Stage, which is presented in part by the New York State
Snowmobile Association. Aside from those attractions, the stage
will be used for product presentations, how-to sessions,
Levi LaVallee educational seminars and much more. A schedule is still being
built.
All of this is on top of the new snowmobile displays, featuring 2022
snowmobiles plus some other powersports equipment; the great deals
on a broad array of riding gear and accessories at various retail
booths; the broad range of trailers, trailering components,
performance parts, lubrication products, etc.; the tourism-based
booths, showcasing new places to experience on future
snowmobiling adventures; local snowmobile club displays; and
much, much more. The Family Fun Zone is also back to add fun for
the kids, and more attractions are being added regularly.
And, all of that is on top of the other glorious reason to attend: to
hang out on a fun weekend with fellow snowmobilers who share
your passion for the sport! Plan to bring your friends, grab some
food and a few beverages, and hang out in the large, modern facility
or outside in the Big East Classic corral.

How Seven Valley Snow Goers in Cortland County Club Recognizes
Their Landowners
By Kevin Forney, President, Seven Valley Snow Goers
W ith over 190 members and 100 landowners on the 80 plus miles Seven
Valley Snow Goers maintains in Cortland county in Central New York, my
primary focus as the President in the beginning and during the season is
resolving landowner issues and complaints. Just one landowner who decides to
close a portion of our trail could have an extreme impact, especially when you
are talking about the C5 main corridor trail.
We had a landowner that took the signs and threw them in the ditch at the
beginning of last season and sent the club a very negative email stating the trail
will be permanently closed. I started with a friendly reply that I would like to
talk to them, which resulted in a conference call with the family. The
conversation began as an absolute “NO WAY” as some riders had disrespected
her and the property the previous season. I explained that her piece of the trail
had a key bridge that there was no way around and we would do whatever
needed to make it right. They agreed to meet me on their property, where I
explained that the club would snow fence and rope off the trail to ensure no
riders could ride on her lawn. I also had a sign made stating that the "trail was
on probation with the landowner," which also helped to "GET to YES". I
received an email from the family at the end of the season saying thank you for
following through on what you promised you would do.
I also met with the Cortland County Sheriff Patrol Sergeant at
the beginning of the season to talk about what the club issues are
and what they should focus their attention on, which were riding
too fast in residential areas, loud modified exhausts and not
staying "between the stakes". I sent a thank you to the Sheriff at
the end of the season, recognizing the deputies who we saw
multiple times all season to include ticketing 6 riders who were
on racing sleds! The Sheriff replied back, stating it was a
successful season and he looked forward to continuing the
relationship with our club.
Also, at the end of the season, I send key landowners a Seven
Valley thank you card signed by myself as the Club President.
For the second year in a row, instead of holding a landowners
appreciation pancake breakfast in April, which only garnered 5-
8 landowners and was a ton of work and cost, we partnered with
the Groton Ridgerunners Snowmobile Club, a smaller club for a
Spaghetti dinner. We send all landowners a voucher for two
people for multiple dates from Nov-April. This year we had 24
landowners use this voucher!

Lastly, when a club member passes on or a key landowner, the
club will put up a trail memorial sign to honor this person. You
would be amazed how this simple act of respect and
appreciation will keep a trail open with the family which might
have been in jeopardy.
Our Facebook editors Rick and Melissa Burt do a great job of
always inserting "thank a landowner" on all posts.

The NYSSA Annual Awards Program was developed to recognize those individuals and organizations that go the
extra mile, year in and year out, to promote and to make snowmobiling better and safer throughout New York
State. Awards are made in the following categories:
New York State Snowmobile Dealership of the Year
New York State Groomer Operator of the Year
New York State Snowmobile Family of the Year
The John Albert/Edward Dutcher Most Valuable Snowmobiler of the Year
This award is named in memory of two pioneers of organized snowmobiling in New York State. These
gentlemen left an indelible mark on snowmobiling in New York State. Their talents, ambitions, and
contributions will likely never be matched. Aspiration to reach the heights they achieved is a bar
that is well worth the effort in attempting to achieve. The NYSSA Snowmobiler of the Year award
memorialized in John’s and Eddie’s honor is a special award that each recipient should hold dear.
And, by the way, if you care, you can take a ride from Waterville all the way to Saranac Lake by
uninterrupted snowmobile trail! You can thank John and Eddie for that opportunity.
Youth Snowmobiler of the Year
NYSSA President’s Award
The criteria for this award is determined by the President of NYSSA and is generally awarded to a
person or persons that have greatly facilitated NYSSA Operations.
