We stay in a hotel in St. Anthony. Cheap rates a good restaurant and a couple of small town bars. We unload at "9 mile" it's close to the big hills. Dragging camping shit that far isn't worth it.

Post by: The norm on September 17, 2020, 11:28:14 PM: I understand the appeal of the motel over camping. Either way I have to tow a trailer so I might as well take the toy hauler. Can a guy make reservations at Egin lake?

Post by: rk88r on September 19, 2020, 08:22:52 PM: I don't know, they have hook ups and a camp store. I camped there about 25 years ago when it was just a field road and a turn around.

You can camo at Egin lakes I think but I can ask one of my friends that goes there every year.

Post by: rk88r on October 19, 2020, 06:07:34 PM: Devils Dune
Title: Re: St. Anthony
Post by: rk88r on October 19, 2020, 06:10:29 PM: You can hit that dune in top gear. A mild 250r or 450r can't climb straight up it.

Post by: rk88r on October 19, 2020, 08:40:31 PM: One thing to plan for is the elevation is 5000-5500' feet. Jetting and a loss of power due to the elevation can be a challenge.
