  1. You are on the right track. Many places offer the outside storage in a secure enclosure. It just gonna need to take a bunch of calling and finding what works. 
     

    As far as flying into Quebec airport…..from the USA there are Canada customs when you arrive. All flights to USA from Quebec airport go to Montreal or Toronto first to clear USA Customs before flying into USA.

    - Since 2016, the Parc régional des Grandes-Rivières du lac Saint-Jean has set up a unique off-road tourist circuit in Quebec: La Passerelle du 49%. The 236 km route is located in the public forest north of Lac Saint-Jean and required the construction of nine footbridges and the development of several kilometers of trails, some of which were existing forest roads. The circuit is accredited within the national quad (FQCQ) and snowmobile (FCMQ) federations and includes numerous accommodation, catering and refueling services. Local quad and snowmobile clubs are essential partners ;

    - Integrating the territories of the MRCs of Domaine-du-Roy, Maria-Chapdelaine, Fjord-du-Saguenay and the Nord-du-Québec region, the footbridge over the Ashuapmushuan River opens up a territory several hundred kilometers long. The annual economic benefits associated with quad biking and snowmobiling in Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean are estimated at $150 million.

    PRESS RELEASE

    Parc régional des Grandes-Rivières du lac Saint-Jean announces the construction of a ninth footbridge and completes the off-road tourist circuit "La Passerelle du 49e")

    For immediate release

    NORMANDIN, April 15, 2024 - The Porc régional des Grandes Rivières du lac Saint-Jean is pleased to announce today a major project for tourism development in Seguenay Lac Scint-Jean: the construction of a footbridge for off-highway vehicles (OHVs) over the Ashugomussuan River, an investment of $3.9 million. The infrastructure, the ninth of its kind since 2016, will complete Quebec's most important off-road trail: the La Passerelle du 49e quad and snowmobile circuit, a nearly 250-kilometre route that highlights the great rivers of northern Lac Saint-Jean and the boreal forest.

    A true sustainable tourism initiative, the crcuit boosts the economy of local communities by confirming Saguenay Lac Saint-Jean as one of North America's premier snowmobiling destinations, and Lac-Saint-Jean as one of the world's best locations for ovenand adventure quad biking.

    Community economic revitalization and tourism development

    "The Parc régional des Grandes-Rivières du lac Saint leur is a major player in the development of tourism in the Roderval district. Complementing La Passerelle du 49-, this important initiative has all the potential to air visileuses and viiteus over four seasons. Our government is proud to have contributed, via the Société du Flan Nord, the Ministère des transports et de la Mobilité durable and the Fonds regions et ruaité, to the realization of this magnificent project," says Nancy Guillemette, MNA for Roberval.

    ita posserelle will ensure all the necessary connections to enable users to circulate smoothly throughout the Saguency-Lac-Saint-Jean region. I'm convinced that local quad and snowmobilers will enjoy using this new pass, and that many will choose to come to our region to explore the trails made available to them.

    1050 heures of grooming this season.

    about 300 more hours than last season. 
     

    It looks like the end for us too, our surfacing operations are getting more and more complicated with the hot weather, we still managed to do approximately 1050 hours of surfacing, representing 300 hours more than last year. The road signs will be removed in the coming weeks. We would like to thank our owners for the rights of way and our 330 members for your encouragement and every visitor who takes the time to write to us after their stay to congratulate us. Your comments are always taken into account. We'll be making a final pass to the Valin mountains (c900) and the 330 region later this week.
