Thanks for posting. I have just over 4000 miles on my 2025 X-terrain so I'll be pulling the skid in November.

Just at the zec other side of the bridge usually.

43 was very good. 2 little washouts but overall 8/10. We did pass a lot of sleds coming down though. From ville Marie up to Rouyan was excellent.

Ended up taking the 43>63>83>93 through Kipawa up past Ville Marie to Rouyan instead. Took the shortcut down Kipawa lake to Migizy gas and lunch. Lake seemed a little sketchy slushy right in the middle, surprised, considering the temps. Flat light didn't help...Tomorrow morning we will do a loop up the 93 to la Sarre then Amos down to Louvicourt or Pavilion depending on trails. Back to swisha and home Tuesday, so we are committed to checking out the 386 from Louvicourt>Pavilion>Swisha. Visibility today was flat but we probably ran 100 miles and didn't see a single sled. 277 miles, a bit of a late start, hopefully we can get 320 miles on tomorrow.

Yeah it's been a few years I think since this trail has been open, or at least a few years since I rode it. I'll update tomorrow night.

Has anyone run the 386 from Rapides de Joachim to Val d'or, through Louvicourt? It's yellow past la Pavilion, we are going to check it out tomorrow. Thank you, merci!

Any recommendations for some 250-300 mile loops out of Alma? I'm not familiar with the trails that are east of lac St Jean down towards Mt. Valins. Hoping for a good lunch spot. We will have 11 liter fuel tanks and are on 900R sleds for range. Was wondering if the area circled on my map is worthwhile? Thanks in advance!

how many kms on your little honda? I always enjoy your pictures and posts. You definitely have seen some amazing views.

Absolutely. My favorite engine, at least before all these aftermarket cylinder heads became so affordable to have a great flowing, high revving small block engines. I had a bunch of hoarded rare cleveland parts, 4 barrel closed chamber heads with those tennis ball sized intake ports and Big block chevy sized valves, 4 bolt cobrajet blocks and still have a strip dominator for one

yeah, we spoke about that in our group as well... could order food in once you get to the hotel, but looking like sandwiches or hot dogs in a thermos or trailside on a fire... Not too bad if its sunny and -3C

Nice... we're coming up Saturday morning. When you leave the canadienee, you go down the hill and turn right on the trail. About 50 feet later, turn left towards rapides de joachim. Cross Kipawa lake and stay inside the pegs.

trail no longer goes by camp dragon. fill up at Kipawa and if you can't go at least 125 miles on a tank, bring fuel. Walking with snowmobile gear on sucks!!

just did this run on Sunday, trailered to the Swisha and unloaded on the other side of the bridge on dumoine road. Trail was fantastic, and was 118 miles from the bridge to the Crevier fuel station in Kipawa, then another 9 to the Canadian restaurant in Temiscaming. We only passed 2 other groups of sleds all day, and the conditions were fast, about 3 hours/ 127 miles. Glad I found this website to get information on this area..

Hi, new to this site, found it through dootalk. Due to the changes in the fcmq site, i've been looking for some new sources for quebec trail conditions. Has anyone done this run this year from swisha to temiscaming? i ride with a couple of 800 cats and not sure on the margin for error.. how well is the new trail marked? would hate to run out, but my etec is usually good for 150 miles on a tank thank you.
