Bancroft Trail Run, July 8, 2023

Its time for a TEC run to visit some of the great trails around the Bancroft area. This trail run will be stock friendly but have enough challenges/4lo sections to make it interesting. Expect a full day on the trails with no pavement in sight!

Date: July 8
Start: 9:30 am
Start Location: Hwy 62 and St Ola Rd, about 30 minutes north of Madoc.


Edit: Note that there is no gas or food available at the start location. Both are available in Madoc and Bancroft.

 

I'm in! My truck is mostly stock except for a small lift and some skid plates

 

you are more prepared than me when i first went. you'll have fun on the trail for certain!

 

sounds like fun, ill be there.

 

@ODSC1 are there any lakefront campsites (for a sat camping option) on the route that you have in mind?

 

I have a lake front property that you can camp on Friday and or Saturday night. Applies for any one else as well. Just 15 minutes from the start location. Pm for address.

 

Interested...since its close and would mind checking out so different trails.

 

Is it newbie friendly? Unfortunately, I can't join the newbie run tomorrow. I have the front skid plate and the factory lift, no rock sliders, but most importantly, no experience

 

Yes it's Newbie friendly. We can help you through any sections that you might have trouble with.

 

Interested.

How tight are the trails? (for pinstriping)

 

Other than the occasional branch pinstriping won't be an issue.

 

Nice, I'm in

Need to camp Saturday evening.

 

Here are a couple pics, one from earlier this year and one from last year. There is a nice variety of trails on this run.

 

That water crossing always gets me... that rock in the middle of the 2nd half sucks....

Also did you find a yellow motorolla walkie talkie?

 

That trail system is the very first time i took the truck offroad, its fairly forgiving but you do want to keep an eye out where you drive.
I did it in bone tock trd OR with oem tires and factory skid.
You'll most likely be behind Odsc1 or someone, watch their tires and try to follow to get an idea

 

There are a couple rocks in there that will surprise you lol. Haven't seen any walkie talkies

 

I’ll tentatively say I’m in on this. Work permitting.

 

@Zephranthes since youll be close by

 

For those coming up for the run make sure to get gas and food in Madoc or Bancroft. Neither is available at the start location.

 

Wait, did Judy's close down?
