Windigo is Awesome! Love it there. Nicests hosts you will find. Ohh lucky you too, I believe Saturday is Wings and Smoked meat Sandwiches. Damn making me hungry.

Tabernack is "Québécois" slang for well let's say, something written in English here that would need ### instead of letters to be polite. Comes from the word Tabernacle. The altar in church.

Thanks All. Steve you are funny. But it's true. Iceman frozen.

One word Tabernack.

Welcome to my neighbourhood, enjoy.

Day 5 Stayed at Quality Inn to try something new in Val d'Or was great. The free continental breakfast was awesome. Plus saved 15% on room with aaa card. Nice. Sleds both started today no problems. Mine was again plugged in all night and the battery brought inside again. Left Val d'Or at 9:30 am 83 east to Louvincourt then 386 down to 63. Turned around and reversed the same trajectory back to Forrestel in Val d'Or. Locked and loaded at hotel. 230 miles today. Truck to Relais Iceman Tmmrw. 1100 miles for the 5 days.

Yes sir, nice to talk with you guys wish we had more time. Keep on rolling guys.

Yeah he had it installed on there. But it is a beast to pull start. Take it from the guy who does the pulling on that rope, me. Takes a lot of pulls even after spinning engine from clutch side to loosen it up. No fun at all. When it's warm and say bad starter or something then yeah good for that.

Yeah I guess that helps. Ours was on no doubt. Just junk.

Or stop here on your way, right off HGWY 40 at exit 144. http://www.daysinnberthier.com I called they have one week passes $200 tax included. Always open. They speak English. Easy on easy off. Hotel is right there next to Mc Donald's

"Anyone know where the American Embassy is up here?" QC City or Montreal should the need arise. You never know.

Wow, quite the Adventure there Jim. Glad you found your luggage piece. Probably brought back some Memories of stuck up on 93 I think I remember the pics from that. Glad you are safe and back on groom trails. Don Hi to Gemma too. Happy Trails.

We have a Geunis GB30 with us. Same like yours small 400 cranking amps. It Did not function Day 1. Showed full charge and was not working. Came right out of a warm hotel room too was not out in cold before we tried it. Today others at Seneterre had the jump box from hotel outside so I grabbed that it was right there for the E-Tec. Gonna see tmmrw if we need it tmmrw we will try it again. Thinking it could be defective it is brand new.

Exactly, you get it I know that.

Day 4 A brisk -35c this am in Seneterre. However good news is Apex was on the coolant heater all night. And fired right up. Despite having taken the e-Tec battery inside it still needed a assist from the jump box but literally started very easily with the booster on. 83 east out of Seneterre to the right turn on Orange trail back to 386 and up into Louvincourt. All super. Stopped for early lunch there in Louvincourt and topped off the gas. Then off again. The rest of today was a bingo day with an assortment of Orange trails and Green stitched together with purpose to cover the most ground. We looped up over down back etc etc etc. I won't bore you with all the numbers and details. Super day bright blue sky but cold. Oh well. 215 miles today. Good enough for me.

Should be good to go. https://www.traversiers.com/en/our-ferries/sorel-tracy-saint-ignace-de-loyola-ferry/schedule/ Say running.

Might be new this year. Is across the street from hotel. Not included and first come first serve to get in. Like 10$ per sled all in.

Exactly. Right On.

Now you are thinking. Great Idea.

Too funny.

Saw NOWA here in Seneterre they were headed east on 83 left here about 4:30pm. I believe they said Clova was the Target.

Yes sir. We got it all.

Welcome Magnus. You could not be in better company then here amongst fello QC enthusiasts. I live not far from Trois Riveres so we are practically neighbours. Look forward to meeting up with you some time soon.

Day 3 No worries and no hurry this AM. Left hotel at 9:30. Took 93 to the 307. All beautiful. 307 and connected to 396 direction Matagami. 396 was frosted with a fresh 2" of snow and simply Delicious. Thank you please come again. We will. Super A+++++ conditions all the way to Mayagami. Arrived there at 12:30pm. Took the gas and 10 minutes of heat in Gas Station and we are off. 396 south just as beautiful as the first half. Happy Happy. Cruised on down to Lebel sur Quvillion and same deal gas and a warm up. Left out of there at 3pm headed to Seneterre on the rocket fast 93. Cruised into town at 4:15. All trails superb. Headed to Ski Doo to search out a possible garage to put the sleds in. No luck there but the did make some calls and found us a place but they wanted $50 for 2 sleds. Yeah thanks but no. Met NOWA at Ski Doo with his friend they were moving on east they said they were shooting for Clova. Godspeed boys. Stick a fork in us cause we are done for today. At Motel Bel Villa. Nice and warm inside. All is good. 270 miles today.
