Sault Ste. Marie - Batchawana / Rand / Montreal River

Recommended Posts

'Mile 38' is well-know by the Sault Ste. Marie locals as a snowmobiling riding and camp recreation destination.  The starting point is at the junction of highway 17 just east of Batchawana Bay (60 kms north of Sault Ste. Marie), that goes northward into the interior of Algoma resulting in higher elevations and deeper snow.  The top end of Mile 38 is one of our last resorts for end-of-season riding when we are seeking April snow.   This past Saturday, we snowmobiled to Batchawana Station on the Algoma Central Railway, then headed east to Spruce Lake.  Once at Spruce Lake, there was the opportunity to ride through the Quintet Lake system and loop back out to Mile 38.   There was close to 2 feet of ice on Spruce Lake, not great ice, but thick.  Temperature was -6 and light snow throughout the day.

Some lumber camp exploring north of Sault Ste. Marie today with Ray Clargo, while out for a snowmobile ride. It was a 13 lake trip under sunny skies and warm weather.
