We had less than an eighth of a tank to go 70 kilometers from Leano back to Red Lake on the rough road... We made it, but barely. We likely won't repeat that again. This is where Jimbo chimes in to tell you our story of a close call.

Hey, we STILL had a cannister or so of the white gas cook stove fuel that might have gotten us down the road a little further!  As it was, the digital fuel gauge showed that we went about 12 miles beyond the tank's capacity.

It's a LONG stretch beteen Dryden & Ft. Frances!!  Fill up when you can!!!

P.S.  The road to Lund Lake was child's play.  My wife's 1998 Plymouth Voyageur took it at nearly 50 mph most of the way out!  We left in a cloud of dust and a "Hi Ho Silver!!  Away!!!"
