Did a day trip to Timmins Casey's from Cochrane last year Feb, asked the club the status of the offshoot trail up to S8 and Casey's. Club president went out and confirmed trail cleared of downed trees. We had no issue using it, even our over 70 rider.
Note, unless changed, Casey's is closed on Sundays.
Cochrane does have several hotel options, but as stated, Westway is sledders headquarters.
