First time in a long time I could see multiple posts normally ! Bravo !! If these upgrades require donations beyond the “ Contributing Member” annual please don’t be shy. Thrilled progress and even continuance of QR is happening. Looked grim for a bit. Appreciate the efforts.

Savage ! 👍

Nice Mike. A little trendy like L'Estiment but maybe more laid back. About 2-3 blocks down from it on the other side. You would like it Mike. 👍👍

Trails survived our stay. Big fun. Trailers still coming in. Some grooming last night. Spring conditions here after yesterday's warmup. 90% of the trail surface is great but the other 10% is spreading fast. Some mid size dirt spots sprinkled in center trail in full sun spots at this point. Mash potatoes yesterday afternoon but still a blast. Our timing was good. All loaded up. Side note...Great meal at La Port Aviere (sp) downtown RDL last nite. Be safe everyone. 👍👍

Very light grooming last night and this AM maps. We are heading west and up over 557 mountain trail then to Hiboux for lunch. We will see what trails look like for tomorrow. In spite of cold temps yesterday the sun started to beat the road crossings end of day yesterday. 31f today with that high angle spring sun. Might head 85 past Cabano up over the Packington loop Friday. Hearing the snow there is good enough to hold up in tomorrow’s temps and that trail is a fun one. 36f for a high. ☹️ 48f and rain Sunday here. That could be a wrap for RDL this season unless something changes fast. I will be home changing the oil in my mower waiting for spring ! Not a huge year for miles but tons of smiles on the trails here and in Maine !

Very light but picked up a little this afternoon. Not enough to bother. Trails were sweet. Warms up tomorrow some. High around freezing. Warmer Friday.

Today mint again. 😁😁

Drove in and hit the trails by noon. Took the river trail west then to 5W to Les Pistes club for lunch…then back east to 561 past Explourers to 526 to 85 and back. 526 had some logging but the trail was mint all but some crossovers to avoid the logging areas. Maybe one of the flattest and fastest conditions I have ridden overall. Zero slush. No real snirt. so….the road crossing are good…maybe 2’ at roads edge but mainly frozen. The bad news is it won’t take much warmup or direct sun to go into full spring riding conditions. One day could change it. The next few days should be excellent but the warmup is in the forecast. It’s 5 degrees Fahrenheit and a high of 14 today so it should be great and super flat.

More major grooming including 35 east of Squatec toward Rimouski and also 35W toward Louis du Ha Ha. I’m sure there will be a few dicey spots we come across scattered thru out the area but thrilled.

I love it when a plan comes together. We will get in Tuesday ! Thanks to everyone for Intel. This site rocks.

Lotta grooming again in RDL area. 🤞How much fell since the rain near RDL ? Gaspe still a lot of closures. They must of got smoked there wow !

So your saying there’s a chance ? 😜

Chris Bob said that it was due to a lot of new snow so it's a temporary problem out there.

Looks like nearly every RDL trail was groomed this AM. The mystery continues…..
