06 Season TY Rides

[MrSled]

we will try to firm them up in the next few weeks...I am sure the Muni ride will be the 2nd week in Jan

 

[snowfoxsx]

you can count me in on the manitoba ride once again, just say when and where!!

 

[tomseal6]

do they have king size beds?

 

[MrSled]

Why you ask that...LOL

 

[Cuzino19]

You guys have to have one in Ontario. Atikokan, Ontario has some of the best trails you will see and tons and tons of snow.

 

[MrSled]

How far is that from Wawa?

 

[Cuzino19]

it is about 2.5 hours away from Thunder Bay Ontario. I cant find wawa on the map so I dont know exactly where it is. Its prolly a 4.5 hour drive from Duluth Minnesota. Probably 11 or 12 hours away from Milwaukee.

 

[Cuzino19]

Nevermind I found where Wawa is. It is probably 10 hours west to Atikokan.

 

[Cuzino19]

Probably the same distance east as it is to Wawa then west to Atikokan from where you are.

 

[MrSled]

So you are north of Thunder Bay??

 

[Chance]

Tom,

It's more west of Thunder Bay on Hwy 11. Sliightly west of half way between Ft. Francis/International Falls and ThunderBay.

 

[Sinjin]

Cuzino, any websites that give any info/trails for sledding in the Atikokan, Ontario area. I go to Wawa area every year, but Atikokan wouldn't be that far away for a second Ontario trip.

 

[Cuzino19]

Umm it will be hard to find because it is a little town that is very passionate about snowmobiling. There is probably only 2000 people. A couple motels. They wont even fill your snowmobile gas up if you dont have a trail permit. I live 400 KM South West of Thunder Bay. I live in Fort Frances RIGHT on the border. Right across from International Falls Minnesota.

THIS MIGHT HAVE SOME INFO ON IT

One of my dads best friends also lives in Atikokan. He might be able to help us all out with Permits and stuff. He has every lake memorized in Atikokan.

 

[MrSled]

If it that far west wouldnt it be better to come over to Manitoba??

 

[Cuzino19]

Does Manitoba have better rides? I dunno cause ive never ridden in Manitoba. Just Minnesota and here.

 

[MrSled]

it has some great riding

 

[Cuzino19]

is the manitoba ride in winnipeg?

 

[MrSled]

usually east of there about an hour or so

 

[yamyrider]
