Welcome
to the
Science Hill Drifters
History / Location and Club trail details page
The Science Hill Drifters were formed in 1993, and have come a long way
from one Alpine sled grooming one trail to the present day with our
2 Shur Trac Ford TM125 and TS115A track tractors, a Marcel 9 foot
drag and an Ebert 9.5 foot drag , and we now
groom 188 kms of trails on 10 major trails. Including 18 kms of
"Tops"
trail
( B111 ).
We are located in and around St. Marys Ontario ( appx 25 kms
north
of London Ontario). Our "Tops " trail (B111) is one the most
southern links to the "tops" trail system.
Our Club house is located 1 km north of St.Marys on Thames Road.
Turn off Queen st. west at St. Marys Ford, the lane way to our parking
lot is the 3rd one past the curve on the left. Look for our logo
on the end of the clubhouse.
The Club house is heated and open 24/7 during the winter months for
your convenience, and the kitchen is open on weekends for food and
drink .
Our main trail (B111) starts at our Clubhouse on the
west end of St. Marys and connects to the Pineridge club north of
Kirkton.
The North trail does a loop to the east and connects to the
Pineridge trails north
of Kirkton making a nice round trip loop.
The Sebringville trail
connects to the Ellice Swampers club near Sebringville.
We also have a
trail that
connects to the Thamesford Snowmobile club on the east side of St.
Marys.
In 1997 new group joined the Drifters and forged a new trail to the
South
East side of Stratford, making a connecting link to the Golden Triangle
trails.
In 1998 we extended our Granton trail to connect to the Town of Lucan
on
Hwy. 4,
In 1999 this trail was extended to connect to the Pineridge
trails
near the village of Clandeboye at Highway 4.
For the 2001/ 2002 season
another
new group of members joined our club and connected a trail from Lucan
to
Denfeild and Ilderton ( both places have gas and variety stores ) At
Ilderton
our trail connects to the Strathory Snow Blizzards trails .This link
will
be a great jumping on spot for people to the south or just to get to
the
rest of Ontario's fabulous trails.
For the 2003/2004
season , a trail was added connecting Denfield to Ailsa Craig and
heading
to the west to connect to the B108 trail near Parkhill .
This trail has added as much as 20 kms onto our existing trails .
There is always lots of free parking at our club house 1 km north of
St. Marys on Thames Road or at the W.G.Thompson Mill in Granton and in
Ilderton at the site of
the
Co-op mill . Our trails lead right in to all three of these
parking lots
for
you convenience. If you need any more information about our trails feel
