¦ Clock was ticking!
Our riding plans for the second day were scaled back because of an approaching warm front forecast to bring rain. Early morning radar confirmed what was coming but offered us hope for several hours of riding, so we set out east toward the hamlet of Deux-Rivières. Our route ran parallel to the Ottawa River, but we didn’t get a glimpse of it until we arrived at our destination, Antler’s Kingfisher Lodge, which is located along the waterway.
With the weather approaching, we headed back to Mattawa. Ominous dark clouds were ahead, and once we were beneath, the rain began. Fortunately, it was light and we reached the Mattawa Golf Club to dry out and enjoy a hearty lunch before returning to the Mattawa Adventure Camp. Though the unusually warm weather put a slight damper on our plans, we logged 200 miles on the wonderfully groomed trails. We also got a good look at what makes the Mattawa area one of Northeastern Ontario’s top snowmobiling regions. It’s well worth a visit!
