    Ill call and talk to them and see whats going on. I know Ill have my girlfriend and if anyone else brings a passenger its better safe than sorry. Maybe we can get a group discount lol who knows. I am going to try and call for tomorrow.

    Why don't we meet here.

    google maps says its a 40 min drive from the mcdonald's to the Ganaskara forest. So if we meet there at 8:10am (very latest) it at the mcdonalds it will give us 10 mins of wiggle room. There is gas stations on the way to the forest off of the 115 if i remember correctly but we can gas up there worst case.

    Been doing some contemplating ... this is forecast to be an awesome weekend weather wise.

    Put me down for 90% in.

    As for the permit, should be asking for a volume DISCOUNT!

    What:
    some kind of trail scouting
    When:
    Ganaraka Forest Centre at 9am on Saturday.

    Where:
    10585 Cold Springs Camp Road
    Campbellcroft, On L0A 1B0

    How to get there:
    You can get to it be exiting Hwy 115 at RR9 (Kirby) and go east the Cold Springs Camp Rd

    Or...

    Exit the 401 at Newtonville Rd and go north to RR9 turn right and left at Cold Springs Camp Rd

    Make sure you have exact change as if there are no attendants on duty they have a payment/receipt drop box. It's $30 for the driver and $12 for passenger.

    1. @Taco-Can
    2. @tacoma16 +passenger
    3. @Joe23
    4. @Theicemedic
    5. @over60
    6. @Bocsy44
    7. @NorilskSever
    8. Maybe @Joe23 friend
    9. @TeecoTaco +passenger

    Also I was thinking of checking out these trails which are super close to the Ganaraka forest.
    -Boundary road
    -Hogs back
    -Wild turkey road


    Some are meeting off of the 401 and convoying up to the forest. Let us know if you are doing this so we can wait for you.

    @NorilskSever ?

    meeting here at 8:10am on the saturday

    https://www.google.ca/maps/dir/''/M...fecb23f02c8ca6!2m2!1d-78.9362141!2d43.8672935

    google maps says its a 40 min drive from the mcdonald's to the Ganaskara forest. So if we meet there at 8:10am (very latest) it at the mcdonalds it will give us 10 mins of wiggle room. There is gas stations on the way to the forest off of the 115 if i remember correctly but we can gas up there worst case.

    I have called and left a message as we are 9, so I will book a permit or what not. I will let you guys know price prior to doing anything, but assuming its $30 per vehicle what would be the max per person? $35? $40? Im thinking it should be cheaper but who knows with these conservation people.

    So I made a map of the possible trails we could do around the forest as well. You can see the green space where it shows the Ganraska forest entrance has a lot of roads to travel. The other roads are with the green and red flags are other trails

    I believe I am taking the role of "that guy in the mud". Since I am too lazy to change to my Bros for a day.
