Picked up a brand new 2013 RZR4 EPS on Saturday in Edmonton and needed to hit the RBC!
Made it out Monday May 20th and put on 150km. We made it all Junction to Richardson Dunes/Embarras and returned. We met alot of quads coming out that had spent the weekend there (at least 4 tub trailers). We had no issue crossing the water at 50km marker, freaked my better half though.
The RZR worked great, both kids fell asleep on the way back! Looking forward to next run out, perhaps next weekend....

I logged my track with my Garmin if anyone wants it, send a PM.

It looks like you are HOOKED to that area. Show us your RIDE. Now plan a ride to Tower at N58.62446 W110.74841. Just short of Lake Athabasca. This is on the ibycus Topo V 2.1 and V 4.0 But not on Garmin Topo Canada V 4.

Its the ride to get there, not the destination, and how many riders have said "I have ridden to Athabasca Lake", on a ATV/UTV? Some have been up there on Snowmobiles? I think getting over and up the Keane Creek, and checking out the abandonded Forestry Tower, North of the Creek would be interesting, if one was able to cross the Mabelle River to start with, North/East of Larocque Lake.
