    Spoke to the local doo dealer and apparently they are limited, at least for this year so he's not offering any discount and he's limited to 50 as it's based on sleds sold and he sold about 270 apparent;y 

    If anyone knows a dealer stateside that is or will offer better pricing, please let me know.

    Thanks

    As Iceman says , We did the shortcut Friday (2/2) and it was sanded for about 9 miles .. Plus lots of Hydro Quebec trucks passing as there putting in a massive new line . 

    Dooright, I see you are from Essex Junction. Do you know a guy by the name Curt Montgomery? I think his wifes name was Christine??

  3. We went from St. Raymond to Chicoutimi friday, back down to Lac Bouchette (Auberge Eva) on Saturday, and back to St. Raymond Sunday. Trails excellent between St. Raymond and Lac St. Jean through the mountains, a bit thin and a little beat around the lake on the east side. Trail 23, 355 and 73 excellent. We had freezing rain overnight in St. Raymond, about half inch on the truck this morning. 

  4. Thanks Jack & Sandi, great info! We have booked Centre Plein AIr Mont Vilain north west of the park for one night. Has anyone stayed here? 

    Also wondering if Trail 23 is an express way or is it tight and twisty? We have 320 km to travel from Saint Raymond to our first stop for the night. My wife is usually only used to travel 225 to 250 a day on our mediocre trails here in eastern ontario.

     

    thanks

  5. Trail riding, leaving from St. Raymond but was unsure to go up 23 to the east or 73 through LaTuque to the west side?? Leaving St. Raymond Thursday and back to St. Raymond Sunday with my wife. We usually do 225 to 275km a day although if the trails are as good as i hear they are in that area we may do more. We are accustom to mostly running trails in Eastern Ontario.

     

    Thanks

  6. Trying to plan a trip to Gapse beginning / mid March. Will be trailering to Rimouski and leaving from there. We would like to travel the north shore of Gaspe peninsula and also take in the Chic Choc Mountains. likely wont have time to do the south shore this time. I have a few questions:

    1- clockwise or counter clockwise for best view / scenery?

    2- is 250km a day a reasonable expectation for a husband and wife team that rides a a good pace - not fast but not painfully slow

    3- Is beginning / mid March generally a good time for good snow conditions?

    4- Any must see things or locations along this route / area?

    5- Good, clean, sled friendly accommodations with a restaurant within the hotel or very close by.

    Thanks for any information or input / experience you can provide.
