Driving to Smooth rock falls, should start from Kirkland lake on snowmobile but it's raining like crazy here. Not a lot of fun to ride on that weather conditions. So will drink today at hotel and hopefully make Canyon tomorrow

Just checked in at Moose hotel in Smooth rock falls,  it's still raining. Looks not good.I don't  think I will  go on trail today, no point. Will sleep and be ready for tomorrow.

Not my best decision to drive here 800km for this weekend for now...

That's what you call dedicated. 

 

Several years ago we headed out from Lillabelle for Kap' in the rain (mid-season). Thankfully it turned to snow around SRF.

For anyone heading up there this weekend be aware that Base Camp is out of fuel until Monday as posted on their FB page. Looks like they are going to stay open for another week as well.

It was a good ride today, I did my solo, tomorrow short ride from Cohrane to Smooth rock falls and 7 8 hours driving home and I'm done for this season.

See you next year.

Man I'm so glad for once that a snowstorm missed us ... just a tiny dusting in Hearst, was melted by 10am.  Kap had snow and freezing rain.  Saw a pic on FB of a truck jacknifed on the 11 near Driftwood, no big surprise .... 

 

Anyone know if Kenny is grooming, or riding ?  :lmao:
