If you print these 3 pages off and line up the roads etc. it should work pretty good for all, any inquiry give me a shout.

I hope you are able to print these out of the post ...

I have been in contact with hadster and thinking about a month and half or better ,before Maylong anyway,I am sure he will respond to this post as well.

BIG_BRUTE750 · 03-02-2009, 12:48 AM

month and a half before may long might be a little to much snow there for quads.

medler · 03-02-2009, 08:20 AM

OOPS what i meant to say is in a month and a half or so we are planning a ride out there Sometime before the May long weekend anyway .We don;t have a date yet

hadster · 03-02-2009, 08:16 PM

Yes as soon as the snow goes down enough to get up some of the steep hils etc. i've been going out in my truck often checking the snow pack depth, it's still very deep in the jackfish lake area. Of course we just got another big dump of snow last week. I'm hoping for sometime in early to mid April, but it's really up to mother nature, often she dissapoints.

Are going to bring your quad this weekend Medler? Jody wants to show us how to climb the sand slide. I already went up there once dont need to again,but if it will shut him up I guess we will have to show him up. Lyle might come with us on may long too. havent decided if the rail ride will be the way to go or not. lets line up a day to go scout it out for some random camping spots.

It is about 100 km or so all the way and will take about 8 hrs one way to do, so you may want to random camp about half way (the Jackfish lake area) and do it in 2 days, half at a time. In some areas it is challanging and you will need some experience to make it through, also some corners etc. are not marked properly so you could lose your way unless you have a good sense of direction & or a gps, etc.The markings you will follow will be signs that say "coalminers trail" or blue paint on trees with black arrows. You may notice there are 2 separate ways to go in a few spots, one will ussually be much wetter the other higher & dryer. Message me if you are planning it and i might be available to show you the way.

grizzley1 · 03-14-2009, 09:23 AM
