Now that is a slide show ! Bravo

You go get it Team Vermont !  Way to much extra gas for those conditions ? Not looking like any one getting stuck any to soon.

Meeting Linda sled girl always a treat !

Key phrase :    " 23 left over " 👌🤣

I said near here is over. 

Not according to Playhard.  Rambo won't concede !

Did the Neige removal guy have to come back from Cuba to deal with this ?

Very Nice ! Good season for infrastructure. That was my stomping ground region many years back. All about way North of the River this decade.

Fantastic Dealership.  Left my two 3 year old sleds at the time there during Plandemic No sledding season 2021.  Went all through both sleds  10/10 service ! Even detailed them on their own. They Looked and performed brand new.

Today had a little of a delay start leaving Km31 ,  had a stud vs aluminum heat exchanger issue with one of the team members    .. all good with some fancy epoxy goop . 
Did a few work-arounds to skip the 93 on the way to the Escoumins club house,  we popped out by  De l'Or-Piste on the Pelchat trail . Smooth sailing all the way . Conditions from mashed potatoes to skating rink .
Ran some local trails and 330/ TQ3  into Forestville for the night.  
Coverage starting to  disappear here n there... but 3 days near 50°f will do that    

Glad to here Mrs Ice prevailed over the trail Bandit !
Never had experienced  like this with soo many trail rocks in 30 + seasons. " The year of trail rocks 2024 " Toured this season regions Mauricie, Lanaudiere,Bas-Saint-Laurent, Charlevoix Lac-Saint-Jean. Observed many rocks even some boulders in trail.
 
Have been running Bergstrom Skegs on both my sleds. Triple point 6" , Comes with ski savers, Recommend purchasing corresponding shim option. My case the ski saddle is replaced with theirs.
Running Pilot DS-2, Two stroke ski. Ski-Doo carves the twisties like its on Rails. Definitely not a rock collector .Fantastic product ! 
Fact:  Triple 6" carbides give each ski 18" carbide bit. 36" overall !

Day 4 Monday
 
Great night as usual with the gang here at Pouvorie La Dore. Gonna get up here this summer for a weekend for sure. Said goodbye to our new friends. They are very excited as soon they will get their one month break in April before starting season in May. Been a busy winter with advertising on I motoneige. Was a good move. 
Little colder thus morning making it comfortable in the gear. Seeing some grooming near restaurant du chef. 
 
Out to TQ93 and back to orange to Chef. Sweet grooming here. White asphalt. Gas at chef for the last time this season. Continue on still beautiful here groomed right to bridge on TQ93. Up TQ93 to 373. Getting used up in spots for sure. Seeing more and more ground less snow. Still good bit of nice trail. After one road crossing the Mrs is shooting wicked snow from right ski. We stop and it’s the curse of Bullwinkle. Rock jammed in snow tracker. We get sled tipped up, got the Mrs holding it while I try to extract the rock, rubber mallet and leatherman tool get er done. 
 
373 across to TQ93. Up to Girardville still cooler today have seen no sleds. Just at turn for Girardville one sled. Ruins our no sled day. We decided to go see if relais Lac des Coudes was open for lunch but got nothing more than a small bonus ride up and back. Closed on Monday. 
 
2pm at truck we decide we will sleep at home tonight, so it shall be. 
 
Great few days on great trails. Not as nice trail as last week here but very nice. 
 
So this year Caro saw three regions different. Escoumins in January, February saw her in RDL first time there and then to the Honey hole in LSJ and the Oasis in La Dore. 
Solid rider and gaining experience each day. 
 
She learned how to get rock out of Snow tracker.
And put her first middle rider in the bushes. 
 
 
Sweet ride back to Home. Great time. Dry road.
