steveo Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Hey Guy's Going for a ride tomorrow up the D trail to Sprucedale leaving from gravenhurst. My question is where is that section of the D trail close by Falkenburg Rd and how much of a rode run is there to get back on the trail. My second question is, is there fuel in around Sprucedale, if not where is the closest. Thanks for any input guy"s may be my last ride this season : ( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlakeBouch Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 is there food in Sprucedale?????????????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viperules700 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Yes. You can eat at the hotel 500m down the trail from the gas station heading east. Can't miss it. Lots of sledders eating there when I passed through last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izzy Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Sprucedale Hotel is almost next to Kirk's. Never eaten there so can't comment on the food. From the amount of sleds out front, seems like a popular spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladefever Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Sprucedale hotel would drive past it looking for a GOOD place to eat. Give it a 3 out of 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viperules700 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Ok good to know. Never ate Thier either. When I passed through there were 30 sleds there. You could go to sliversands on sand lake in Kearny. Awesome food. If you go straight down top d it comes out at the edgewater go across sand lake and you will end up at sliversands. About an hour ride sprucedale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

extreme600 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Steve O. You are in for a great ride tomorrow. Enjoy. I just finished my post about the conditions in those areas. No probs with gas. Both in Sprucedale and in Port Sydney. The one in Port Sydney is on Highway 11 where most people unload their sleds. On Sunday we rode from Sparrow Lake to Sprucedale mainly via the D trail on the west side of Hwy#11 than crossed over to Kearney than back down the 80 series trails on the east side of 11 than crossed over to the C102D/C103D to the B trail back to the 3 than the D than the 4 on Kashe back home in Severn Falls. Awesome ride!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

02Sled Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Sprucedale hotel would drive past it looking for a GOOD place to eat. Give it a 3 out of 10. I agree... we went in there a few weeks ago. A group of 6. The place was busy. We all ordered and they brought everyones but one of the guys. He asked for his soup since they seemed to have forgotten. He asked yet again. We had all finished burgers etc. and still no soup. Then to add insult to injury after getting nothing he had to stand in line at the register to get them to cancel his bill since he never got fed. The only reason it is so busy is they are licenced. Driectly across the road is a general store with a small cafe. They have pretty good food and you don't have to wait forever.

steveo Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 Thanks Snowcrest and all the rest of the surrounding clubs for making this year possible, I did end up going for a ride but it was very short lived thanks to the float bridge in Bracebridge, for some its not an issue but for my sled with no studds I would have had problems, the south side has a huge ice rut (deep too) and no snow, I would have made it across no prob but coming back I know I would have got stuck (no room for error on that bridge) so I ended up riding back on the top D to trail # 3, man the D was in great shape, no clinging or changing at all. All in all short but sweet. Trails by tomorrow will be crap : ( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
