The wife and I went last summer. There are multiple opportunities for places to stay or camp. We (she) chose to stay in nearby Virginia because of the availability of more amenities (stores and restaurants). I'm not sure there is enough to ride more than a day without retracing but it is actually better than my expectations of it were. We also brough our bicycles and did some riding on those the second day in and around Virginia and checked out the mines. After leaving there, we went down and rode the Moose-Walk Moose-Run and RedDot trails near the north shore. Later in the evening we also rode our bikes on the Gitche-Gummi bike trail to Splitrock. All in all, a very nice vacation.

Not trying to disagree with teh ATV'rs, cause I've never done Gilbert IN an ATV, but ina 4wd truck/SUV there is a large amount of stuff to do out there and it could take all week to do it and thats if your vehicle was capable to tackling the toughest trails.

I think there is a lot to offer on site and in the general area. Check with the DNR HSOforum. They list all the public ATV trails as well as showing on a map.

Somethingfishy...I replied to your post in the post that I started about the Mississippi River fishing in St. Cloud, did you see that? My wife and I are also looking at the area you asked about for wheeling...maybe we could meet up and make a trip out of it? Send me a PM if you can, [email protected]. Thanks.
