Viperules700 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I will stop in next week! Which trail are you off of? Haven't been into town in quite some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake G Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 There is a "back trail" that runs from Rickward's Polaris down to Fetterley's Garage (F.G.) and the Iron Skillet (I.S.). I drew the trail in green because it does not appear on the Interactive Trail Guide, even though it is groomed trail. The quickest way to get to the gas station or restaurant from D is to run up the street if there is some snow cover. It's a few hundred metres. Some local Kearney sledders such as snowchopper or Baylaker can correct any mistakes I have made here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrummage Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 I'm a little confused. Google Earth Street View shows the Iron Skillet at 102 Main St. not on 518. The building appears to be the same one on their Facebook page. Never mind. In looking through their picture gallery I see that they moved.

Blake G Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 The Iron Skillet is THE place to eat when sledding in the Kearney area. Kearney is less than ten minutes from Highway 11, so the Iron Skillet would be a great stop for a quick lunch, or even take out food, if you're traveling up the highway in your car or truck.

DaveTess Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Where can week park and drop in Kearney. I know you used to be able to park at Hwy 11 just off the highway at the info place but what about right in Kearney. Â I don't want to impose on the Edgewater when were not staying. Stayed there a few times. Â Just thinking of coming up for a ride Saturday and would love to try this Iron Skillet you all talk so highly of.

irnskllet Posted January 16, 2015 Author Share Posted January 16, 2015 Hey Dave.   If it's just a single vehicle and trailer we have no issue with you parking here. The parking lot isn't huge, but I'm sure we can find a good place for you to leave it while you ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sledjunk Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 You can park at the Emsdale Info center and I believe Rickwards (Polaris Dealer) allows parking as well. They are very close to Iron Skillet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muskoka Man Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 We park at the municipal building right in Kearney , almost right across from Feterlys gas, trail goes through the parking lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake G Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 There is a trail that runs from the large parking lot at Rickward's Polaris down to Fetterley's Garage (F.G.) and the Iron Skillet (I.S.). Iron Skillet has a 100 metre stub trail to their door. I drew the trails in green because the Interactive Trail Guide shows the trail running down the road, which it does not. I confirmed with Rob Rickward on Wednesday that he is continuing to gladly offer free parking in his large lot. He doesn't mind if you park without coming in to ask for permission. He also made a point of mentioning that they own the lot on the other side of the road, which is also available for parking. It is also handy to park there in case you forgot your visor cord, oil, etc. I definitely recommend staging from Rickward's then sledding 60 seconds south to the Iron Skillet.
