At the T intersection turn right to the town of Dryden. You will pass by the paper mill and cross a bridge. Turn left at the first set of lights.  Turn left at the 4 way stop.  You will go through an underpass and come to another set of lights.  Turn left at the lights onto Highway 17 west (if anyone needs a last junk food fix this would be the place. Turn right for McDonalds, Pizza Hut or A&W, turn left for Dairy Queen). Stay on #17 west until you come to the village of Vermillion Bay (20-30 minutes).  Here you will turn right (north) onto Highway 105. The highway terminates at the traffic lights in Red Lake.  Here you turn right and proceed to the Lakeview Restaurant where you turn left onto Goldshore Road, proceed to the stop sign and turn right, you are now on Forestry Rd. We are located at 75 Forestry Rd which is on next hill past the old mine on the right side of the road.  Look for the wagon wheels by the road and the racks of canoes in the yard. If you cross a bridge you have gone too far. If you end up in the fire fighting base-camp you have really gone too far. See Town Map   Northwestern Ontario Select Map to Enlarge
