Greg i have never actually found this fabled route 13 . I am beginning to think its like the North West passage.

Thanks

If we move outside of Ontario then I'd drive the road between Gold River and Campbell River on Vancouver Island. Pretty well deserted and a good road, it goes over the spine of the Island east to west and vs. It's worth the trip.

[QUOTE=jumper5836;11380545]Upper Big Chute Rd off the 400 all the way back to the 400 going through Severn waterway

Great drive, although the section between big chute and Severn Falls is getting really rough. Our cottage is 5min walk from Whites Falls and the wife cycles to Coldwater and back from there ( 60k round trip). so I'm quite familiar with the road.
BTW, if anyone's up that way and need a pit stop let me know, were up for for most of the summer
