Ontario wheelin
 

Hey guys...and in particular Mike Romain....

I've just shifted my residence from BC back to Ontario.
I had some good fun doing some wheelin and camping back there (gotta love
those hidden lakes up in the mountains --breathtaking).

Anyhow, got a chance to move back home to Ontario and am looking for tips on
fun wheeling/camping. Gotta be near lakes (not in them!).

I just got a stocker so nothing too cruel!

Thanks
SB

Welcome back to Ontario. When the spring comes I should be out all the
time. I enjoy the scenic stuff too and since I got rid of the YJ and not
have a Grand Cherokee I will be sticking away from the extreme stuff. This
summer should be pretty good I would think.

Re: Ontario wheelin
 

Back in BC we had published map books for "back country" excursions. They
included forestry roads, bike trails (the main ones!) and lots of hiking
trails and stuff.
Not that I've been looking REAL hard here....but I haven't found any offroad
map books here.

Is it just not as popular as back there? Or not as many places to wheel
(hope not!)....

Re: Ontario wheelin
 

Hi Steve!

We used to live out west too. A couple years on the Island up near
Campbell River and a bunch of years in the Rockies before that.

I do try to organize a bunch of trips a year for folks from this
newsgroup local to Southern Canada, Ontario area, last year was a slow
one, I have been laid up due to being a passenger in an accident, but
this year should have a bunch of runs happening.

We are running up to James Bay at the end of August. Leaving the 28th
from Toronto and planning a return on Sept. 5/6. I made a post about
that run last week, am getting a good response so far.

There is a 99% chance we will be bush running for Easter weekend, not
sure on the dates yet.

Where are you located?

We do day runs close to The Toronto area on a fairly regular basis and I
am getting the broken frame on my CJ7 fixed this coming Monday so look
for snow run calls really soon.

I do have a mailing list of folks to notify for runs so if you are
interested, I can add you to the list.

Here are some photos from previous runs. These are at Sony's
ImageStation site that now requires you join. They used to be an open
site. At least they don't spam and if a member you have a place to post
your own shots.
