Even More Powerline Exploration

Tried to connect the power lines all the way up to highway 30. Unfortunately, many closed gates and steep ravines kept us from making it all the way on the jeep trail. Ended up on a lot of new as well as disused logging roads, and even made it to Gunner's Lake, which is more like a pond. Lots of fun! More promising exploration in the area, though the number of closed off gates is a bit disheartening. Some offer portage around the gates, but on others it looks like the logging company is very focused on keeping even motorcycles out via stump and brush piles on either sides of the gates.

Finished out the ride with a big lunch at The Baowry in St Johns.
