I've plotted the route on Garmin. Basically a straight run on Hwy 10 (at Orangeville) to Hwy 6 and straight up.
Good spot for me to meet would be Airport Rd and Hwy 9. Thats just a bit west of the 400 and right on the way to HWY 10.
I'm gonna book for the run up and also for the 1:30 pm back on Friday.

OK, I booked the ferry for 11:20 on Tuesday for the ride up and the 1:30 on Friday for the ride back. If anyone wants to join me for the ride back thats when it will be. It's about a 3.5 hour ride to the ferry from Thessalon so it won't need to be a REAL early morning on Friday. :)

There are a few of you that did not order t-shirts. We are ordering in one more week. June 4th is the deadline. I need to get them off to the printer soon. It's going to be a great time. 8 more weeks. :)

Hi

Dirt Road and Lizzie, glad you can join us. I ordered the t-shirts already. Check with us to see if we have extras. I think there will be a couple extras.
Wolfpack, I think the Inn is going to accommodate your camper. Check with us when you get here.
If you are coming from the east gas up in Iron Bridge. No gas stations in Thessalon. Nearest one is At Little Rapids General Store. A couple of km on Highway 129. If coming from the west there is 1 gas station left in Bruce Mines.
