i'm going. hope to see some of you there. its raining here now and there is still nsow to melt, so it should make for an interesting rally.

Myself and Poppajon are also thinking of coming on the rally. should be sloppy but the ground is still frozen which could help out in the nasty bottomless skegg

the snows going fast. I live in loon lake, and we saw most of our snow go yesterday and its supposed to rain here this afternoon so that should help as well. It is going to be a messy rally, i can guarentee that. Didn't go mark it with the boys on sunday, but talked to a couple of them and they said that it should be a gooder. Its taking a completely different route from the previous few years so it will be interesting.

is the rally going up on the railway grid? i know in the spring when its full of ruts it makes for pretty slow going.

good to see theres some ppl on here that are familiar with the loon lake area. The rally wont be going down the old railroad grade, talked to a couple guys and the rally is going north of town this year...not west. So it will be completely different area. Alot of the same terrain, but just in a different area. Lots of the trail that have been used the past few years for the rally are just to pounded out and rutted up. Just for your info tho, the railroad grade is for the most part fixed up. There were a couple service rigs doing re-entries up by the fire tower this winter so they fixed it all up to where you turn south off of it towards the tower. Should be good to drive a pickup down again this summer unless some idiots rut it all up again.

great. we have a season campsite at ministikwan so we go on the railway grid quite alot. we also used to have a cabin on jumbo beach (the one with the green tin roof beside the a frame) so we went up there snowmobiling every weekend. we know our way around it pretty good. the best was the spring that was always steaming in thw winter. but i see someone opened that up so the spring just drains into the lake. used to go up there when the old tower was in place. but the terrain in the area makes for a great rally.

Right on, its a beautiful area thats for sure. I live in Makwa which is ten min east on the meadow lake highway. If i see your bike ill make sure to say hi man. Hope you all have a good time on the rally, its supposed to be a nice sunny day so bring on the beer and the mud!!!

Slamnek · 05-01-2008, 12:03 PM

AC4life, do you know how many Km's the rally is? My bro is thinking about bringing his 9yr old daughter along. Thanks

AC4life · 05-01-2008, 12:08 PM

slamnek...im not 100% sure about this years rally at the moment, but i can sure make some calls and try and find out for you. I am guessing it will be in the 45-55 mile range tho.
