Thank-you. I was last in Timmins in 2018 so I cross Bonaire off my list too. It was just a good starting point because of big parking lot. They did charge me 10 dollars a day to park my rig when I wasn't staying there, but it was easy to park there compared to packed super 8.
Always told me they watched the stuff at desk 24 hours a day and truckers park in lot too.
So at times it was worth it to do big loop. I only stayed first and last night there. Trail use to go in a loo, I remember coming out by fence you described and running side walk and parking lot if I come in from that side. Wasn't too bad, but parking lot was still iced up at time. Trail access highway is gone now so only one way out? How does super 8 get access to trail now too, if that loop is gone?
