Viperules700 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Snowing like crazy west of new hamburg. All roads in Huron county are closed apparently. Some area's could see 40 cm's or more. Ground isn't frozen, so can't see trails open this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo Doo Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Is there a place to park truck and trailer in Markdale? Like a staging area. Might get out and run this section into Owen Sound on Saturday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PISTON LAKE CRUISER Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Is there a place to park truck and trailer in Markdale? Like a staging area. Might get out and run this section into Owen Sound on Saturday!Markdale is part of the Municipality of Grey Highlands. The municipal office is first building on the left coming north on 10into Markdale. They have a good sized parking lot and I'm pretty sure the municipal office isn't open Saturday. There is a feeder trail from the railbed that comes in right on the south side of the parking lot. It goes to the fuel and food across the street. Looks like the railbed is open all the way down to Dundalk if you didn't want to drive as far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Â Can't have that much fun riding up and down a rail line , I live like 15Â minutes from the line but until some side trails open I'm staying parked . Once you go up and back then what do it again . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
