there are several possible routes once you get to quackenbush lake at the west end of the mountain chute hydro line trail.unfortunately i won`t be riding till next year as i just got a shiny new hip.good luck exploring.
i usually take off from mountian chute and head west.from barrets chute you are in the heart of the trail network and could end up anywhere some places being less klr friendly than others.still its a great place to explore if you have someone to help out if get stuck.also 50ft of rope a folding saw and a pulley can make life much easier if you do get bogged down.i don`t normally use my gps much unless i get lost,and sometimes i just go out and try to get lost. keeps things interesting you know.
back in the old days they used to ride across the dam but no more.you could always ride from baretts chute down 77 to the mountian chute express and then back to calabogie along the 508 trails. the mountain chute express runs along the west side of norcan lake.
a few weekends a go I ran into some 4x4 ATV riders who were going around the lake, I should have asked more questions about where and how they planned on doing that on 4x4 (green plate).
