Giddy UP Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 We are off to see Ron and Giselle tommorrow for a few days We just left there yesterday! Trails are awesome around Matachewan and Shining Tree as always Ron and Giselle are great hosts too! Be careful if you are travelling A trail north from New LIskard towards Elk Lake during your route- there is a dangerous turn over a small iron bridge just after you enter Club Echo trails that is not signed properly I ended up missing the bridge and going over the bank into the riverbed...approx 15ft drop and flipped my sled They are now calling me Giddy UPsidedown. Thankfully - no damage to my new Doo and a great big "handlebar" bruise on my right thigh and some whiplash - could have been disaster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you are ok and the incident didn't ruin your trip. Hopefully someone fixes the signage before another incident happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sledjunk Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Glad you are OK. I guess I got the story now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giddy UP Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I don't have the pic of the UPsidedown - but somebody in our group does I think. But this pic sort of says it all if you can picture that this was taken at the top looking straight down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
white dragon Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 wow...glad you are fine.looks like a fair drop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giddy UP Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Thanks White Dragon - yes it was - I was VERY lucky for sure - there should be signage there and there isn't. The bad part is that this is the section where the groomer turns around because he can't make the bridge. So the groomed trail looks like it goes right to the edge of that bank when he drops the drag and turns around - it is very deceiving and when there are no tracks to follow except the groomer it leads you right to the edge and over! Definitely needs a sign at the very least - or perhaps even a snow fence to guard against somebody else making the same mistake! The next person may not be as lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
