Description
Arktos is a backwoods crag filled with great climbing and a fantastic secluded next-to-the-lake camping spot just a kilometre away from the action. Arktos is located about an hour northeast of North Bay, and just north of Jocko Rivers Provincial Park.

Getting There
From North Bay, head east on Hwy 63 for 52 km. Turn left onto McConnell Lake Rd (a logging road) and travel north for 18 km. Shortly after the 18 km sign, there's an opening on the road where you can turn left over a small gravel culvert crossing a creek. Take this turn-off, and continue on this road for 3.7 km to the crag. You'll see that 1 kilometre in, the road Y's - stay to the right. At the 2.4 km mark, it Y's again - again, stay on your right. It is the smaller and worse-looking road of the two, but it is fine to travel down. And, again, at the 2.6 km point the road Y's again - this time, stay on your left to get to the crag; if at this point if you turn right instead, less than a kilometre down this road there is a great campsite next to Dymond Lake. 3.7 km total from turning off of McConnell Lake Road is where you park, on your right, and the cliff is to the left, visible through the trees.
