Ontario BS Thread

for what its worth one of the gus I work with has a cottage up that way, actually he's originally from the town right next to ardbeg.

he said 400 has been pretty dead lately since summer is pretty much over so not as much cottage traffic

 

Good to know. Half the battle is getting to the 400. Lol.

 

Haha ya probably! You think it’s dark by the time you get up there?

Okay ya man I’ll let you know as soon as I get it figured out.
I mean depending where you guys plan on camping, how far is that off the main road?

 

Depends where we are camping. Might be 20-30mins if My gustimates are tight. If they are camping off of the north trail it’s further down

 

Better tight then not

 

decent ways in.
say maybe 30-45min off the main road, mix of unmaintained road, some rocky dirt road and then a little bit of rocky terrain before you get to the camp site. Its a bit much if you don't knwo where you are going and its night. Depending how you drive could do it faster or how heavy you are. Last time peter eugene and I went eugene was flying in but peter and I being much heavier had to go slower. We also made the stupid mistake to not air down before. 40PSI and that terrain is not fun

basically i'm thinking we'd meet some time around 2-4pm at the king city thing.
if I do go to work i'll be done at 11 30, probably home, loaded and ready to go by 1-2 then would be heading up. if I dont go to work I'm thinking we'd meet around 2-3pm.
Only reason I'm really thinking not to go to work is then I need to wake up at 4 30 and then I'll be tired as fuck by 10pm lol.

So i'm most likely not going to go friday.


And eugene and I are planning on hitting up the hero burger in muskoka and that would likely be enough to hold us over for friday then just need food for saturady.



AND FOR ALL THOSE COMING
Don't forget to stop in Perry sound to fuel up before hand, especially if you aren't bringing any fuel. The other fuel stops close by are expensive as fuck, 20-30cents more/L

There's also an LCBO, sobeys, beer store, walmart in perry sound so you can do osme last minute shopping which we often do as well.

 

Ya, do 407 from Milton. You don't want to do Milton to 400 on Friday at 6pm

Worth the cost

 

I'm thinking of heading up Friday as well now. I'm off at 330 so I'll try and have the truck ready to go so it's a matter of showering and go. Wanna meet at the King OnRoute at a certain time?

 

getting to that spot off north trail at night i feel would be absolute fucking hell, especially if its the one I'm thinking of in the trees.

as long as our spot isn't taken on the water

 

No gpx files for that route?

 

I’ll shoot you my number. I think you’ll be an hour or so ahead of me since we’ll be leaving roughly the same time but your an hour or so ahead of me.

 

not that I know of.

 

400 will be busy at around that time so getting out of Toronto will be slow. Message me when you leave home and I'll start heading up as well. I don't mind waiting a bit by the OnRoute if I do get there first.

 

You mean @Norilsk didn't map that? So not like him.

 

IF IT AIN'T FLYIN', YOU AIN'T TRYIN'

"secret spot"

You all will have fun at night getting there... It ain't pretty in the day time either I would say, but if I can make it with my tiny P 30s, you all can.

 

thats if we arent at our usual spot

if its the spot I'm thining off north its a lot of tree coverage, cant hve crazy fire

 

Negative. The spot we are going to on the north trail is open and by a lake. Very good for fire.

 

I doubt anyone will be there that early at this time of the year. Should be all ours

 

How hard is it to find the trail if ive never been before. Might be solo saturday now
