    I have been watching the weather forecasts for Timmins, Cochrane,Kap and Hearst like a hawk (Mark would say "worrying too much", but I am not the one that got wet thru today with my truck 100 km away). First the forecast for this week caused us to postpone until a week from today, and now its has us thinking of staging in Kap for reasons similar to Turbo Doo. I don't want us to drive all that way to ride icy trails. Until today, I didn't realize the potential weather difference between Cochrane and Kap, let alone Heast. According to TWN 30 minutes ago, it was +3 and raining in Cochrane and -3 and snowing in Kap. Cochrane isn't forecast to get any appreciable snow in the next week, but Hornepayne, Hearst and Kap are. Therefore, follow the white gold to Kap!!!  

    It’s all part of the fun if everything went perfect we would have nothing to talk about lol

    I’m guessing it would be hard pressed to find rooms in kap now for the wknd? I’m gonna stay confident that things will be ok. Just have to get past tomo and hope for the best out of cochrane. 

    We were the only ones at the Advantage last night I’m sure you could get a room

    I’ve stayed at the Super 8 and it’s nice but recently stayed at the Advantage and more of a motel style and you can park right outside your room and papa Franco’s next door plus it’s a bit cheaper to stay there. 

    That’s where we stayed last night nothing fancy but clean $98 with tax the Casey is a Chuck’s also

    We are planning Canyon on Friday couterclockwise, stay at Smooth Rock Fallls and heading to Hearst on Saturday and Sunday back to Cochrane. Don't like to ride mushed potato

    It won’t be the best you are probably better going to Hearst and riding the loops north of Hearst it’s in much better shape over there

    West side of Canyon is Yellow now, hopefully things not going worst:o  

    Just road it today yellow is definitely appropriate it’s getting thin in a lot of places .East side is better but there’s about two Kms of road running that’s pretty much bare 15  Kms south of the canyon

    On the radar it’s showing more snow over Hearst and Kap region. Cochrane and SRF are more in the rain/freezing rain mix. Sure hope it doesn’t hurt things too badly. Leaving tomo for cochrane 

    It’s raining in Cochrane now has been for about two hours not hard we rode in the rain for about a hour coming back from the canyon. Hopefully not much my truck is in Timmins was going to go get it and bring it up here but was starting to get wet though

    Thanks for the warning. In all the time I've sledded, I have never had scratchers. I hope to head north next Wednesday. Should I get Skidoo or aftermarket scratchers? 

    Ski doo the ones Blake has they work great

    Accuweather forecast is more favourable for us. Less rain and lower temps than the TWN forecast, both tomorrow and Thursday.

    Was Smoothy's closed for eats or not? We were under the impression it was closed. The garage pic looks similar to the Sat' night we were there.

    It was open yesterday
