How about Black Lake at 9:00 AM we meet and on the trail by 9:30?

Hey Humman:
 
I noticed you have not received the PM messages that have been going around setting up for this trail day. Still on board? Some are camping Friday night; others just coming for Saturday.
 
All:
 
Any one else want to come?. Calling for 17C and sun so should be a good day, Coming so far:

Sorry Tom, was off-line for a week. I should be good for 24th

Hello,
 
Looking for a good advice - would you recommend getting a CB radio with all its pros/cons or go for a VHF/UHF?
 
I like the VHF/UHF range, sound quality and size of the handheld but not sure how many actually use these here in Canada when going out with a group like the coming weekend? 
 
Thanks,
Johan 

9am at Black Lake, got it. Am tentatively planning on going up Friday night and camping so hoping some others go. 
 
Johan, I run a CB radio and have had great success with it. You can buy portable CB radios as well that work good. 

We will meet at Black Lake, same as last  last year.
 
CB radio is the only way to go. I also carry some FRS radios in case my or someone's CB fails. Have seen antennas knocked off or bent.

Thanks guys, bought a CB 
 
We're bringing the kids (1 & 2,5yrs) so hoping for decent weather especially for the camping but I'm taking Friday off so we'll do a small tour on the way up so worst case we'll stay in a hotel/motel as close as possible supposing there is no Hilton in Ardbeg! 
 
Have a nice day!

Lol, I googled black lake, then thought you were crazies at 8hr + each way drive, hahah then realize it's black lake cabin area (before parry sound) you meet then head to where ever,,,,, that's waaaaay less driving,.,,

I'm sure it will be perfect weather for ya guys

Yep the Parry Sound -  Black Lake = 45°38'16.7"N 80°10'06.5"W.

Hey Johan and all,


Don't expect too much in the way of a campsite. We are talking primitive crown land camping. No water, no washrooms. You need to bring everything because there is nothing. Just saying it is a far shot from the Hilton if you know what I mean☺


If you decide to hotel there should be something in Parry Sound. You would be about 45 min to an hour from Black Lake.
