    Yeah, me too.

    Depending on our numbers, it might be a good spot to return to. This time I'll bring my ice-fishing gear.

    I had to cancel last minute last year so I'm looking forward to it. Will have to book a vacation day at work.

    I'm in if it's the 20th. Can't make the 27th. KHPP would be my choice. Never been there and it's closer for any of the Ottawa/Quebec hangers who might want to come.

    Looks like we're leaning towards the Feb 20th-22nd at Kawartha Highlands PP. Nice thing is that we can likely follow well established snowmobile trails across the lakes or up and around through the forest. Scenery and the walk is nice either way, but there's a lot to be said for the ease of travelling over lakes.

    I'm possible for the 20th but not the 27th
    I'm good for whatever location
    I've marked my calendar - hopefully work doesn't prevent me from attending
    Cheers !

    I think I'll be in just need to talk it over with Ms. rofo. I can do some scouting if required. Better get some cold weather in the next couple of weeks to freeze things up or it will be a land locked trip. I did a fall fat bike trip/camp where we went in last year, did lots of exploring on the ATV rails.

    I think the 20th is good for me. Kawartha sounds good to me as well.
