    How long will we be on the trails?
    Any plans for anyone to camp overnight somewhere and return the next day?

    We aren't planning to camp (I'll be heading back home after the trail), but there are areas for camping on the trail if you want to.

    Well it looks like we'll have 6 trucks on Saturday. We want to be on the trail by 11am. It looks like a short trail, but I've never done it so who knows. If it turns out we have extra time we can try some other trails in the area.

    Anyone interested in meeting at Hwy 400 & Hwy 9 (MTO Carpool Lot 3479) around 8:15 - 8:30 to drive up together?

    Bring your GMRS radios if you have them, and any recovery gear you have, although we shouldn't need any.

    On the summer ride it was 3 hours for 5 trucks in and out. Ie 3 hours total. I expect we'll be similar maybe a little slower depending on video and photos. Pumped to see everyone on Saturday. As Chris said if we have extra time we can hit up some other trails on the way home.

    A convoy up sounds good. I'll be there with my wife, radios, and lots of recovery gear. We shouldn't need it for that trail but offshoots and bonus lines are hard to resist...

    Who is excited for tomorrow? Any one else besides me?
    FYI - there are a number of offshoots that we can take along the ay, but there are also a number of offshoots that we are NOT supposed to use. I am bringing a trail guide with me from the 4Lo Jeep group to help us avoid the areas we shouldn't drive into.
    Also we are supposed to try and avoid the vegetation when we are attempting any of the obstacles.
    Supposedly we are looking at 2-2.5 hours in and 2-2.5 hours out. We can have lunch somewhere in the middle or just see how the day goes. The is a shell in Minden that we can gas up before hitting the trail near by.
    Also there are areas near the entrance we are not supposed to stop at. Let's meet at the Shell 12281 ON-35, Minden, ON K0M 2K0 before we go to the trailhead as there are some private land owners near that start that down want us stopping there.
    Tomorrow is going to be awesome, so excited to do this. I know a few of us it's the first time, has anyone in this group done the trail before?

    FYI, I've changed the meeting point on the first post to the Shell station in Minden.

    I guess we can air down once we are on the trail, or are you not going to air down for this trail?
