fanrgs, Hwy 17 in Northern Ontario is definitely a truck route! Maybe Hwy 11 is as well, but driving distances would increase, leaving that assumption in doubt. Thunder Bay is subject to a lot of winter weather, especially going towards spring when the huge sheet of Ice on Lake Superior seems to treat T Bay as its own ice box. We were stranded there one year when an April first snowfall dumped 40 centimeters. I couldn't get off the highway fast enough, with semis still barreling towards us as we crept towards a place to take refuge on a motor homes' regular tires. One slip and we'd be chopped in half by a semi.
