Ultrafrozen Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 "A" trail from Kenogami up to Matheson and A108 north out of KL were groomed in the last two days. We didn't get much rain but it got warm, up around freezing, probably same as Val D'Or. I think they are calling for -16C tomorrow, enjoy your trip through KL area, A108 south of KL is usually rougher than coming up the A trail through Elk Lake. I heard Elk Lake gas station is closed so hit MacPhearson's Esso just 2km north of A trail and A110Q intersection west of KL if you don't go into KL. You probably already know Butler Lake truck stop is closed so next gas is in Matheson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unmanned kiosk style, open 24/7 accepts credit and debit I'm told. Diesel and regular gas only. Heather at Eco Resource Center mentioned that you can see the pumps from where the A107C goes behind the Moose Horn Motel. Lights up like a UFO crash site at night. Eco has premium gas when staff is there, didn't get an answer as to when that is exactly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it between the motel & the river (trying to get a GPS waypoint) The sandwich board in front mentions a boat launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
