22 Day Trail is what you guys are referencing?
Or is there another trail in the general area called the 28 Day Trail?
We are putting together our annual Feb. week long ride, always looking for something new. Are there two trails? Or is it the same trail? Gracias.

Bump
Did they do their ride and did they do the No Wimp Trail. We saw no sign of any tires going toward the coast for the NWT last week.
