Ax hotel in Tremblant is a bit off the direct route anyway.
Hotel Chausser in Pine Hill will probably let you park and ride on the 327 but a fairly long ride to Mont Laurier( still shorter than parking anywhere on the 50.
You might consider driving to Labelle 20 min further north than Tremblant on the 117. Start of the pitit train de Nord and main route to Mont Laurier. There is a parking lot there always full of trucks and Trailers so I am assuming it is safe. It is right in front of the old train station ( restaurant catering to sledders ) and at the junction of The 323 and 325.
I have left truck and trailer here a few times and no problems.

We were there last week and conditions were fine. I posted on the Jack & Sandi thread. It was cold and windy but the trails were good. The traffic has been less than past years. I think it is because there is good snow cover in Ontario and New England so riders don't have to travel unless they want to. That makes for good trails and less riders.
The mountain always gets beat a little more with the concentration of the off trail sleds.
We are heading back to the Delta this Saturday for another week in Paradise. Maybe see you on the trail.
Jack & Sandi
Wife and I will be at the Delta Sunday. This will be her first trip to Paradise and with new sled. She should be very happy with both. Looking foward to meeting some of the other QR's

Cant help with cancel policy. Place is awesome, you want to make dinner reservations ahead of time though. Place gets crowded from locals especially on weekends. Can do dinner reservations on internet also.

Are they the liq ones our do they go over the seat?
P/N 860 200 623 They go over the back of the seat and have straps on each side that connect underneath seat and another around the back of seat. Add a ratchet tie down to running boards and your go to go. I think they work great. Lots of pockets and some dividers inside.

Pipeman do you have a pic of the saddlebags I'm looking for more storage and the skidoo linq saddlebag doesn't look big enough. Thanks in advance.
Did you look at the Ski Doo comb saddle bags ? They sit a little further back and have quite a bit of room. Just got a second set yesterday the wife’s new sled. Heading up the 10th !

Are the Best ! A Big shout out to Stephan and his crew at Le Pub Hotel and Resto in Riviere - Rouge right on trail 63 next to gas station. I left my phone in the restaurant at lunch on our last day. By the time I realized the phone was missing the sleds were in trailer and we were racing home to beat a storm. No time to go back by sled or truck. I called that night and the girl said it was there, call back tomorrow. A couple of my guys were Way more concerned about me getting my phone back than I was. The wife called while we were driving home the next day and spoke to Stephan the owner. Stephan would not take a prepaid Fedex or money. Well needless to say I have My phone and a shitty pair of readers to boot ! The postage was $46.00 CA to send the phone ! I have a nice note and a little something for Stephan going tomorrow.
Gotta Love our friends in The Great White North !

Credit Card is the best but no doubt you will need cash on hand. I previously had AAA w/o incident deliver it directly to the house but now AAA directs me to this link - https://buy.travelex.com/us/Error/SessionExpired If the latter is as easy as AAA was this is a no brainer. If you do use it, please let us know how it went.
We too are saddle bagging that week - heading north & north east - and will also stay two nights at the Signature - 1st & last - during our trip. Also looking to attend the winter carnival as we have only heard great things.
Enjoy your trip.
Wife and I will be riding out of the Delta Feb 11-14 and will be in Quebec City for the Winter Carnival Feb 15-17. We have been to Carnival twice over the last 15 yrs or so and it's a Blast ! Lots to see and do in and around Carnival and Old City. Dress warm, lots of walking around.
Have Fun, Safe trip

If Ben is still the Chef at Cheval your meal will be top notch, Other than that yep both nice.
If Ben a rather heavy set fellow who has been there for a few years then yes he's still there. Great food !
-
Both are great in their own way. Cheval has a newer section with condo like rooms the wife may like, and you don't have to go outside for drinks and food. We had great lunch at Cheval last week. Haven't stayed there in 15 years or so but it's a nice place. Have a great ride !

Shot up the Kanawata express yesterday and then past Chatreavert up to Gouin. WOW, what happened to Chateuvert ! !

I"m sure the cabins are real nice. But I'm sure Tony might like not having to go back outside for dinner and breakfast. 🐾 :)
