  1. 2016 Riviere du Loup Trail Conditions

    in Bas St-Laurent

    Posted

    Its time to ride and I arrived at RDL tonight, finally. Driving north through New Brunswick and into Quebec, arriving into QC at dusk, I got about 40 miles from the hotel and it started looking good. About a foot of snow, looks powdery. Saw a groomer, saw sleds on trails, groomed trail crossings by the road, some sleds and trailers in the hotel yard, and lastly, the manager of the Universal Hotel said trails are great!

    This post is for all snowmobilers to provide info and trail conditions of this area for the enjoyment of others.

    Snow, groomed trails, a new sled, and a week off. Doesn't get any better.

    Happy trails.

    Thanks for the update.

  3. No more STUDS in QUEBEC??

    Seems to me its another case of throttle jockeys hurting our sport. I cringe when I see someone spinning their studded track across the road for no reason.

    I always feel a little pain whenever I see that. Fortunately it's less common in QB then in the US, in my experience. I try to not break the track free even on the trail, nevermind the road or a parking lot.

    "The use of slip will be permitted from October 15 to May 1 on the tires or tracks of off-road vehicles covered by the Act respecting off-highway vehicles."

    Does slip refer to studs? If it does, slip will be permitted during the winter months.

    Am I reading this correctly?

    I like your interpretation. I'm gonna go with that.

    So checking the conditions here: http://sledmagazine.com/actions/showConditionsSentier?request_locale=en.....it seems many clubs updated today and many are still green (or at least yellow) in the Gaspe region.

    I hope this means the rain wasn't as bad as other parts of Quebec and when coupled with this Wednesday's forecast for snow maybe things will be good for much of the region???

    Any more info would be much appreciated.

    What is the local forecast JG ? Sound like riding will be on hold after this weekend or ??

    Thanks !

    Weather.com shows temps dropping Tue and staying down. Also shows some snow Wed for R-du-Loop and higher snow amounts (also Wed) for Gaspe (town of Gaspe). So we shall see.....fingers crossed the rain amounts aren't a washout.

    I just called the Hotel Copper, the groomer has been out and the trails are good. It doesn't show that yet on the conditions map but the call was good enough for me. We will leave from Pointe a la Croix and do some sort of loop there somewhere, i will worry about where once the rubber hits the snow! Heading up at noon tomorrow, I should have some pictures and a bit of a report Sunday night.

    Good luck and have fun.....eagerly awaiting your reports back. The northeast region still shows all red so I'm hoping you report back something more optimistic.
