    Fatbiking winter campsite?

    Any suggestions for a good spot to set up a canvas hot tent base camp with good trails for fatbiking? I’m not looking for fatbike specific or groomed trails.
    I was thinking somewhere along the rail trail maybe?
    The challenge is that I need a campsite that I can snowshoe into and set up the tent without having to hike more than a mile. This setup is too bulky to carry on the bike.
    Thanks!

      Floodwood Pond Roadside camp spots? Or you could park at the Fish Hatchery and sled your tent into a campsite near the rail trail.

        i would think the trails around Goodluck Lake would work out for this. the campsites are less than a mile, and the trails are pretty flatish. are bikes allowed on any/all trails?

          McKeever would probably be a good spot. Wolf Lake Landing Road has lots of campsite and goes to Woodhull Lake and continues south to meet up with Mill Creek Rd. (no campsites). This route is heavily used by snowmobiles. The South Branch Trail can be biked to Woodhull Mtn.

            I just found these replies 2/8/25. Funny thing is that I am trying to figure it out again! Haha.
            thinking somewhere along the rail trail would be good though I would like to avoid snowmobiles.

              I thought the snowmobiles also used the rail trail?
