Turbo Doo Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Yes gas at the Abitibi Canyon Base Camp. Be aware that on the Smooth Rock Falls side there is plowed sections due to OPG work and Logging on the first 50kms on the Cochrane side. Hence why it's listed on the ITG as limited on the Smooth Rock Falls side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys are open and only accept cash as payment. It is near $5 / Litre. The west side is passable but not as enjoyable as the east side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucebob Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 If you go from Smooth Rock to the canyon it is shorter. So you have to put less of that expensive fuel in. Then go to Cochrane from there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crow Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I am not sure if it is still there policy or not, but last time I was there (2018?) there was a minimum 10L per sled. Someone here that has been up this season can verify if that is still the case I’m sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yamatario Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 yes still minimum 10l in effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infernobuster Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Who cares. Go up and support them. Without that fuel stop not many would be able to do the entire loop anyways. We stopped in both times last week. First one was to have lunch, second was to get a drink. Both times we got fuel while there and listened to the young lads stories. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
