I drove two days each way from the Chicago area to Abnfrog’s place for Intro to Tech and a very thorough VIP class in 2019. Classmate was Lowviz. Abnfrog/Steve Simpson is in Temagami, Ontario. Middle of absolutely nowhere. 8 hours northeast of the Soo (Sault Ste Marie, MI) where I crossed into Canada. Scenery is absolutely gorgeous.
