whits-end Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Like a number of OCers, we are doing a couples trip 'Big Loop' out of Cochrane (counter-clockwise) 1st week of March. This time we planned a night in Dubreuilville, followed by a side trip to White River for lunch and down to Wawa that night. ITG looks like that might not be possible due to yellow and red trails. Anybody done this or have any info? Thanks, whit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo Doo Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 (edited) I know there is unfortunately alot of work taking place this season on the trail, as per the Marathon Clubs Facebook page. It was limited in the section of work. Maybe work has increased. Edited February 5, 2020 by TURBO DOO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whits-end Posted February 5, 2020 Author Share Posted February 5, 2020 (edited) Thanks Turbo Doo. We'll just monitor the ITG and make our decision later. Edited February 5, 2020 by whits-end added more info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skidooboy Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 loggers have the D west tore up from about 20 miles west of dub, all the way to Hammer lake (fishing moose lodge). will be a difficult trip. Ski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had plans on spending a few nights in Dub, and heading out to Marathon for the night, then back to Dub, but maybe not this season. As skidooboy stated, the red section around hammer lake, is logging, and closer to Marathon is powerline work, as stated from Marathons Facebook page.

skidooboy Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 there are many good day loops, riding to be had around dub. one of the favorites is: dub to hawk via the magpie, magpie to trail 6, to hawk junction for burgers at the big bear, hawk back to dub on the D trailside trip on the F trail to dog lake and ernies (call ahead, if you want food, or fuel).

Quite the terrain change from White River to the old D109A intersection (M'wadge turnoff). If TOP D is the same west of White Lake, there's is quite the climb for westbound riders. I know it was a steep downhill for us heading east. If you get to ride out that way some time, have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
