Was just wondering if it's possible to quad into the Gordon Sidney cabin in the summer, or are there too many creeks and stuff like that to cross. Also there are two little lakes in past the cabin. Can you get too them as well.

Looking a little rougher than the last time I was there in the summer about 12 years ago.

You can get to the above pictured cabin (Gordon Sydney) located at the saddle in Hunters with a bike, hell of a ride though. My boys have done it many time's but they ride at a pro level, both of them.
I have to use a SXS or ATV to go there. There are a couple of wicked rock climbs to do.
You can also get there via Mara fire hall and Kanaka lake trail.

Where there's a will there's a way haha thanks for the info. We are going to head there this summer and we figure down in no mans land would be some awesome riding as long as we can get there! Kanaka lake trail would be a good route as well, that is accessed off Mabel lake right?

You can not access no mans land.
The Kanaka lake trail is off Mara lake, not Mabel. Off 97 at the fire hall.
Though you can access the area via Cook creek fsr.
DO NOT GO OFF trail, the area is sensitive and it is illegal to venture off the beaten trail, infact wheeled vehicles are not allowed above 6,000ft in the area unless there is a already established trail for vehicles. Fines are very heavy and they also take away your toy. There are signs.

It is unlikely you will be to get to the cabin till mid July this year. I have gone a few times on Canada day and was turned back because of snow.
