The photo went up backwards new route in purple first pic

Finally, we can unveil the new permanent route to circumvent the legendary Bell Cabin.This will allow us even more autonomy this winter versus the transport of wood which had delayed the start of last season by leaving us several rocks as a gift. This new route, 10 kilometers long, required the addition of 15 culverts and was completed in 24 days by Excavation Gaston Clavet and its day laborer Claude Perreault. This newly built trail will give you a spectacular view and will enhance your journey. The new route of the trail will be officially on IMotoneige as soon as we have the chance to go there by snowmobile in order to take the GPS reading and then send it to the federation (FCMQ) . On the first photo you can see the old route and on the second, the new one. Special thanks to the Séminaire de Québec, to Excavation Gaston Clavet and to Claude Perreault, our president, for the time spent in the field.

1 December -2c rain ended last evening cold moved back in for now and light snow flurries turned it all white again. need real cold to freeze ground and lacs and rivers.

Update for trails Hello everyone, here are the changes made to our trails for this winter. Between Chambord and St-François, from the transmission line to St-François: new trail 83, created by the Club de vtt du Lac, about 2.5 Km. *So the transmission line is CLOSED: see photo 1. Loss of right of way when arriving at Chemin du Moulin, near the bridge and the old "Auberge du Toit Vert" in St-François de Sales. A new trail has been redone: see photo 2. Loss of right of way: trail 373 in Roberval between row 2 and 3. New trail redone towards row 2: cross the road to Roberval and continue on row 2 then turn left via the private lot to row 3: see picture 3. For trail 83 de la lièvre, the trail will go through chemin Lamontagne. There are not supposed to be any logging operations this winter. For trail 355, Lac-Bouchette to Lac Edouard, there will be forestry activities on Zec Kiskissink. From the junction near Kiskissink Lake for about 6 km, the trail will be laid out on the side, be careful on the bridge, traffic with trucks. Thereafter, it will take a bypass path for about 12 km to return to the usual path. Picture 4 A big thank you to the landowners for their collaboration and support to allow us to offer you beautiful trails. Respect for staying on marked trails, private and government land, is super important and above all fragile. We continue to work with landowners, municipalities, the MRC, various departments, forestry companies, etc., to maintain harmonization and the sustainability of our trails. Happy snowmobiling season and be careful!

That was the 396 back then that you are talking about. There was a place that sold gas back then it was a logging camp or something like that on the La Sarre side of the trail. as I remember. Lots of sticks poking through the trail when we were there too. Did not see wolf tracks but saw Mom and a baby moose that we got to check out for quite a while.

30 November plus 2 building an ark deluge of rain. Pas bueno

That is insulting as all Donkeys are easily more intelligent than Joe

Definately awesome but not in same league as Taureau or Vieux Moulin

You set the bar high with the Auberge Lac Taureau and Vieux Moulin. Sacacomie Lodge would be comparable, but I think is much more iffy on Christmas trails(ya never know).

Enjoy it while it lasts. I don’t see the respect for others and their property improving it’s getting worse every year. This is the world we live in today and the future is not looking bright. Sadly. Like the video says new trail does not appear by magic. When its gone it’s gone.

North of Val d’or lost right of passage. Near Harricana River. Unhappy landowner.

Good News here as well Repairs being made and should be completed by December 15. Trail will be open and good to go.

Still here pretty melty yesterday and Wedsnday looks tropical but we shall see. lots of snow in the Gaspe and Charlevoix , Cote Nord and on the Mont Valin

Great News apparently this has been resolved the TQ23 will be open no worries and the M-4 in Shawinigan as well.
