$5 in the field at the top of the hill. Just take the quad down.
I have to walk so I unload my stuff and partner at the edge of the water, drive up the hill to park and walk back while partner loads up the sled, then walk out. All the walking is a pain.
I really wish someone still offered ice taxi service. Hut rental is appealing just because you don't have to walk.

I realized afterwards that I gave some ill advice. I remember about 5 years ago OPP on the hill ticketing people for driving unregistered motor vehicles on a highway for taking their quads and sleds up or down the hill. I have no idea if they still do that but if you don't want to risk a ticket you can unload at the bottom of the hill, park at the top and walk back. If saving the walk is worth risking the ticket, well that's your call.

You used to be allowed to drive from the top of the hill down to the lake on your ATV or sled as long as it is licensed and insured and I think it is still the case (although trying to find it in the Norfolk by-laws seems almost impossible right now). It needs to be licensed and insured on the lake anyway so if you're legal you will be fine as long as you follow the rules on the road (i.e. no 2-up atv's etc....)

From st William at 4 way to ice is legal. Only place in norfolk. If you have insurance and plate your fine however there is no such thing as a legal 2 up atv in Ontario for hiway use . Some trials are fine bu thre laws have not been updated. You can and will get a ticket for passengers on an atv. They were supposed to update last year but haven't heard if it passed. Males no sense but welcome to Ontario

You are almost completely wrong about ATV's.
Yes there are legal 2-Ups, it changed a few years back under the HTA.
Never was a problem under the ORVA. Hell even "add a seats" are fine under the ORVA.
Incorrect. Like I said trail systems are different than hiway use. Under no circumstances is a add on seat suitable for a passenger for hiway use in Ontario under the law. You will get a ticket. As far as factory legal 2 up atvs they were NOT legal for roads use but suitable for trial use. Passengers had to get off before crossing a road . I did hear about the law on this being updated but I can't find where it states this. Rememer norfolk doesn't go by ontario laws and the by-laws here are much outdated. They still recognize a ORV like its 1990. The poc was pulled from the ministry's site .
