  1. that is an easy one Repos One of the only gas stops many from Cabanon ever see
  2. How about TQ 83 between Roberval and Relais 22 headed south. closer to Relais 22
  3. true enough for the tank and pump not ideal but better then nothing Hope the power stays on and/or the generator stays running to work that pump. But sprinklers definately save lives and property no doubt about it.
  4. just one problem with the sprinkler system the lack of a water supply for them to function I don't think they have the infrastructrure there at Onitchaway
  5. Wemotaci residents being allowed to return home. No word on Relais 22 will try to find out. there are still more then 20 fires burning in Quebec only 1 is listed as out of control. rain helped for now and number is way down from the 60 last week that were burning unsure if the trails have been affected yet (bridges burned etc.....) we shall see not sure if the people from manawan have been allowed to return yet.
  6. not yet but have been studying the prospect of doing it Is all riding along the roads to go there plus towing gas
  7. Bonzai brother glad you guys made it to chibougamau (it does exist) told you now next year we go to the rail bed from Chapis on the 93 and stretch the legs on the Yammies Oh yeah! sounds like quite an adventure to recover that sled Wow good stuff
  8. Just returned from a 4 1/2 day trip to end a not so snowy season for us all day 1 dropped the sleds at Relais 22 83w great trail little icy leaving Relais 22 and riding the dirt road after the gas in Wemotachi was memorable after the dirt road in Wemo Awesome stuff all the way to Hotel Tamarack Thanks to Martin for being a great host and we shall return day 2 Clova to Amos 83 to seneterre then down to louvincourt for gas and lunch only to find our lunch stop was buldozed over the summer up the local trail to the 93 and it was ripping to Amos day 3 Amos to Chibougamu 93 WOW is all you can say rocketing down the railbed and winter is in full swing through chapais and chibougamu day 4 chibougamu to roberval great trails all the way to near st felicien needed to use the orange trai to roberval as the 373 is closed at relais des buttes not great hear but we made it., day 5 roberval to truck at relais 22 83 to relais 22 was great 1100 miles for the total blue sky and great temps perfect ending for a not so easy season for riding
  9. Shawinigan wet heavy snow lots of it need to let the clubs get out there why break trail in this shit let the groomer open it I say. too deep too wet no powder just snowballs
  10. wet wet wet heavy stuff no fluff here no where. have not seen the trail broken here yet TQ3 mt carmel
  11. Still has not stopped snowing At least 20inches so far (conservative amount) Looking like Washington, DC finally some winter
  12. still snowing snow should be 15 to 25 cm by thurs about 4in so far almost forgot what new snow looked like it's been so long
  13. Winter trying to make a comeback here in Shawinigan Snow oernight now continues about 2 inches so far (real wet stuff) We shall see forecast is all over the place one says rain one saying snow lets hope for the snow and all of it. Will post more later
  14. No worries for this region just returned is all good have fun
  15. Good One very funny Viper2 for sure is a great trail was there earlier this season and was 10/10 so sweet for sure Kanawata is a great stop but call ahead for sure lots of French tourists there often book the rooms full in the lodge
  16. choice is yours 355 pipeline trail to la tuque is the only thing "closed" (not enough snow since the rain to reopen it yet) either way is ok for you
  17. I think was the same storm you are talking about in 1996 and some guys I know rode into NYC down the Taconic Pkwy from Putnam county, NY and toured the city and back home must have been cool. Sorry I missed that ride. Some new snow here would be nice for sure
  18. Both of those articles are from the same incident from sunday near rivere du loup on the st lawrence near isle vert they were trying to reach some fishing huts or something and the guy went through they are looking for the body still I believe this is the latest death I have heard of in the province by snowmobiling Sounds like not the best place to travel on ice that moves 15ft twice a day. Just my opinion But my sympathy to the family and especially the friends with him helpless to save him. must have been a bad scene for sure
  19. I guess the Jersey Turnpike and the Garden State Pkwy would make some wicked trails Fire Up the Groomers
  20. Pay nothing ride what you got. I love my Yamaha and will not look back. I like to play on the 2 stroke for a local ride or just for the day. But for my touring weeks back to back gimme the 4 stroke apex merci beaucoup Since I started with the Yamaha in 2008 I have seen a lot more trail then repair shops and I know for a fact cause I have seen it Can't say that for Ski Doo's lets be real here. Ya get what you pay for. Yes is very expensive especially here in Canada but really is Priceless for dependability and performance
  21. Keep in mind this area (charlevoix) had an amazing amount of snow before it rained Probably the most out of all the regions (even saguenay) this year to this point I been there seen it with my own eyes
  22. Nothing too crazy but they just guess more then 5 days anyway Is staying cold for the week so hey is a start
  23. Do not try to use tq 3 to tq 83 Will be rough if passable that way at all from st raymond should be fine the tq 23 to Jonquiere Or for sure 73n to 355 lac eduard is open and groomed to go to Lac st Jean go for it Up in Saguenay is All good much more snow there before the rains
