Why black out the plate #? Would it hurt it's feelings?
I was thinking the same. The rider should be identified, tarred, and feathered. Because of the plate location, is it safe to assume it was a Canadian registration? If it is, I am relieved it was not a visitor from the States, but that does not make it any easier to accept. It is outright wrong, selfish, and inconsiderate, however you look at it.

I put 221k miles on that one.
WOW! 221K...OMG...Congrats....
Great suggestions as we have done it a few times......Tooling around the Gaspesie, on the Road King, at that time, on a Sunday morning, when traveling through St Flavie (Mont-Joli) we came upon mass being hosted by Église catholique Sainte-Flavie, outdoors on the banks of the St Lawrence. It was a pleasant surprise so we stopped & asked the man above, in part, to provide us safe travels. Thankfully he did. That trip anyway..ha ha. Since that time, I think the ugly looking guy, whose name starts with a "D", that hangs out below in the warmer grounds have intercepted my requests & thanks to the man above : ) Maybe some of you have also dealt with the "D".
The photos of the rock/ Perce was taken from our room at Hôtel la Normandie. The hotel is closed during the winter months but it is a favorite of ours on our summer jaunts. The on premise restaurant is exceptionally good.
Thanks to each of you. Stay safe, all.

This is the sad part....*.hanks to the others who saved their lives.
*SEPAQ was contacted before two other snowmobilers decided to transport them to ask for assistance (we're on their territory) and they simply replied "there's nothing we can do for you, sorry make arrangements".

Thank you ICE. From the comments from within this site and the news article it sounds like he was a gem. R.I.P.

I never had the honor. RIP.
Is the man depicted in the attached 2023 news article one and the same? https://www.pourvoiries.com/en/blog/pourvoirie-au-pays-de-real-masse-a-woodsman-at-heart. Great write up.

Getting across the border is not a heavy lift, and it is always an enjoyable visit. The mileage is usually half what I reported, but we must run the outside due to many temporary closures in the local system due to active logging.
A few inches of snow fell here in Pittsburg, NH, overnight. Someone venturing across the border today would have far better tracks than yesterday.In my first post, I should have noted that the FCMQ grooming pattern incorrectly reflected the area trails hadn't been groomed in days. This morning, despite us witnessing the groomer in action, it still reflects gray. Before our initial departure, a Facebook posting by Club de motoneigistes des Monts Appalaches advertised the the trails were recently groomed to & from the customs house, so we chose to see who was correct. FB was the winner.

What's one to do when you desire Quebec pub grub? Jump on the sled and get it. Thirty-eight miles bump-free from camp on the local Pittsburg USA trail system to the Chartieville QC Customs house. Three of us produced documents & after exchanging pleasantries with a very courteous and joyful customs officer, we traveled an additional twenty-eight miles to La Patrie via 65 & 525. We passed the local groomer inbound & outbound, laying the flat trails with the small amount of snow he had to work with. Upon arrival, we had a great lunch in the very crowded Resto-Bar La Patrie. Surprisingly, the bar & dining room were packed for a Thursday afternoon with tradespeople & snowmobilers.
The Canadian trails were mint; however, sections in the fields, thankfully short in length, were ugly as they had no snow or were snirt & slush. On our return in Chartieveille, we encountered a sick groundhog that refused to vacate the trail.
Minimal snow is forecasted locally for the next 24 hours. Failure to get a few inches of new snow and those short stretches of no snow & or muddy slush I described will only be lengthier, deeper, and muddier as the sun was high, bright & warm today.
Stay safe.

Have not seen this opensnow before, does it tend to be accurate?
Thank you. I don't know how accurate "OPENSNOW" is. At first glance the information is easy to read & in depth. I don't remember where I recently came upon it. Regretfully, it comes with an annual subscription price. I only signed up for the five-day free trial - no C.C. required - only an email address & p/w for signing in. Surprisingly, they / the ad was true to their word. From what I see, several meteorologists are on board, assigned to different regions, and provide daily morning weather reports. I have three days left on the trial. Time will only tell how good they are, as I can't justify the expense of the annual subscription.
Best,
Paddy O
