LondonCalling Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Good to hear about Cochrane. I will be there tomorrow. Staying at the Thriftlodge. Caution for those riding the A trail around Elk Lake. The freezing rain has resulted in a lot of brushing needed. I rode from New Liskeard to the Elk Lake eco centre and back. about 10 miles of trail from the eco lodge south has a lot of over hanging tree limbs and some trees down across the trail. It was still passable, but a wack of chainsawing will be needed. The rest of the trail all the way into Earlton was fantastic. Roads in EarltonL189 I think are not good but it may be the better option if heading on to New Liskeard as the A trail crossing on the Wabi River in New Liskeard has nearly a foot of slush on it. Best to ride the banks and find better places to cross as we did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runnynose Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I live in Sudbury and we got nailed with 2 inches of rain on Monday, but fortunately it only hit +4C. Trails are showing limited but should be okay, just crusty as we had a very good snow base this year when compared to the past few years. Lakes will get icy as temps getting down to -17 tonight. A little further north (Gogama north) they got more snow instead of the rain, so still great up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elk Cabins Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Crew heading out today to fix the A trail brusher on the groomer should be back in shape by tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weapon02 Posted March 18, 2013 Author Share Posted March 18, 2013 Got back yesterday from Sportsmans Lodge. George was a great host. It is north east of Sudbury. The trails north were in great condition. Most were groomed and the rest were hard but ok. The lakes are icey and hard. Not great but safe. The 206 loop was a 10 out of 10 and the rest were 7 out of 10. With the snow in the forcast these trails will be even better this weekend. We had a great season ender and wish we could go back for another. If your looking for a final ride I would say go get it while you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flash 800 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 We rode north bay last weekend and it was fantastic. There is still a ton of snow here. Not one rock and almost no barespots, I say almost because the only bad areas is where is have to use roadways, there is limited to no snow in those areas but other than that its smooth sailing. Probably another 2 weekends worth of riding left if the weather channel stay true. Easter riding anyone?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
