Access to the Properties
Alto-Gardnar was accessed by the existing MacFie Rd. by snowmobile which will need minor clean-up for larger equipment. Access to the Tabor Lake area was achieved via the Sandy Point Rd. network which was maintained up to the north-eastern boundary where current forestry activity exists. Within the Tabor Lease, the existing Camp 33 Rd. was used to access the lake which will be cleaned up prior to drilling. Access to Howie Lake is excellent on the maintained Snake Bay Rd. which runs through the property on its way to Dynasty Gold's Thundercloud Property.
