The above coordinates will bring you to the City parking lot in front of Plaunt Transportation. We plan to meet around 7:00 AM. There, we will stage, plan and socialize. We will then catch the 8:00 AM ferry to Bois Blanc Island for a day of riding the trails. There are coincidentally ten caches on the island. If we happen across one (or all) we will probably have time to stop and investigate. The ride is fairly easy going, but you will need an ATV, Side by Side, Dirt Bike/Enduro etc. The roads on the back side of the island are far too narrow for a car or standard pick-up truck. If you choose to join us, make sure you have a full tank of fuel and bring other necessities such as snacks, drinks, bug spray, GPS etc. Unless it has rained recently, it will be a bit of a dusty ride, so expect that. I would like to be back to the dock for the 3:00 PM sailing. The very last trip of the day for Plaunt Transportation leaves the island at 5:00 PM. I would prefer to save the 5:00 PM sailing as a last resort only. We don’t want to risk getting “stuck” on the island.

Even if you are not planning to go to the island, please feel free to join us for a sendoff and grab a smiley.
