No worries!

There is an event at the end of this month....Rocktoberfest!

Here is a link to the main event in the Bob....if you guys have never been, it is slightly over 3 hours from Ottawa.

http://www.trailfest.ca/

Here are the coordinates to the trailer drop off, quads and buggies....at least from what I have seen.

https://maps.google.ca/maps?q=44.639097,+-78.530918&hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=44.640811,-78.54229&spn=0.188098,0.308647&hnear=0x4cd4d8d6f6720145:0x244994727e0b0d9a,%2B44°+38'+20.24",+-78°+31'+50.85"&gl=ca&t=h&z=12

...and just up the road is one of the trail entry points...where most of my video was shot...

Sounds interesting, wouldnt mind to check it out... has anyone ever being there? How the trails look like? Don't want to drive 3 hours to hit trail like Gorge.

I seen a few you tube video's of trails in that area and they looked more like quinn and craigg .
There is also lots of mud,and clay , but I guess that;s got a lot to do with what trail you head out on.

Registration for TrailFest was closed a couple of weeks ago.
There is a ticket or 2 for sale on Throttlehappy.ca.

Sorry... TrailFest was in August...
I meant Rocktober Fest and yes registration is closed for the event
I had registered myself but as is right now my buggy has no engine. I do not know if registration is transferable but I do know the $20 I put down to pre-register is non-refundable.
I won't be going but wish I could...

Guys, the trails I was on are crown land. You cannot be blocked from using them. I know there are private runs that are used, but I have only been on the Crown trails and they were nice. I am new to this, but some of the jeeps I saw were heavily modified and some stock. There always seemed to be a few ways around obstacles hence the mix of trucks.

Till Valhalla!
we did camp NL a few years ago and did some of these trails, they where really good (we only stuck to the 4 to 5 out of 5 rated trails). That is the problem with most of the Ontario events, limited registration and they fill up quick! I definately would go back sometime but i'd definately want to camp close to the trail, some of the trails from the camp at camp NL had a 45 min hiway drive to get to the trail head, not my thing. definately beautiful country though.

Well, I came up to your event(spring fever) this year and had a wicked time(will be returning).

I know some of us are trying to get out sept 22 weekend. We will not be in the bobcaygeon area, we are staying on one of the access roads up closer to bracebridge. If anyone wants to meet up, just let me know. I do not know all the trails but have a map that helps. Also the OF4WD launched a trail index for their members(setup like google map), which has a lot of the crown land trails on it for the members to explore and report on any issues.

Coles notes.....

Its a online map to the trails, with updates from other members. When you run a trail you submit a trail report to keep the trail info up to date, with trail ratings and a description of the trail.
