I didn't realize Silent Lake was open that late in the season - maybe I'll try for Fall because it looks quite pretty. That looked like a difficult trail with the leaves and mud. Great park overview.
Silent Lake is an all seasons park. It is also very popular in the winter. I believe one section is always reservable and the other section is on a "first come, first seeve" basis in the late fall and winter(plus walk in only when the snow cones).
You are lucky that it was silent when you were there.....when I went it was anything but silent! How late in October were you there? Me and my friend was there this past Oct. 22 - 26, before moving on to Arrowhead for a few days. I thought the pumpkin/skeleton display was cute! We liked Bonnie's pond and did a side trail to.the look out. We did not know you could ride bikes on any of the trails....that's cool that one of them is cycle friendly. We were also in Granite Ridge #130(if I recall correctly). It was electric but only tents allowed. So many except for a few was electric/ tents only in that loop. Likely due to the hills and tree placements on the sites.....Did you find that in your loop as well(that must sites was electric but only allowed tents)? Neat that you went to all of the beaches. We were only the boat launch area and day use beach(as tent campers, that's where you get water in the fall & winter).
Thank you, Here is the list based on Koodo/Telus and therefore Bell Good/decent - Killbear - Killarney - Grundy - Restoule - Mikisew - Algonquin (highway 60) - Bonnechere - Lake St Peter - Silent Lake - Driftwood - Murphy's Point - Any of the Orillia Parks (McRae, Mara, Bass Lake) - Sandbanks - Presquile - Oastler - Sturgeon Bay - Balsam - Sibbald Spotty/none Arrowhead - works best in Roe Charleston Lake - By the canoe launch it's ok Bon Echo (you may service on top of the Mazinaw rock) Kiosk - No service at all Awenda - pretty much only at the beaches/Kettle's Lake Emily - only close to the highway
