thanks snowfarmer happy trails

Interesting about the gas When was the toronto show snowfarmer? Just seems a bit odd that they would put the gas there at the T of tq 63 as you said (I know where you mean) Who gave the info on this new gas stop? who are the "people at the toronto show"? Club? Tourism? just curious I know a couple seasons back there was a gas halfway or so through the park it was a shack with generator and tank was closed this last year. It's like they knew Joncas would not be open for the gas stop? Or maybe it's just a coincidence. Can't see another gas there to compete with Joncas they had the market cornered so to say down there for sure. They sure do have a heck of alot of fires up in Quebec that is for sure

Was nice place for sure Expensive too was way too much Still hate to see any options disappear from the trails I would imagine there will be a gas stop there one way or another no food or rooms but gas is easy. Trailer,generator,tank,and pump bush gas there were many buildings there they all can't be gone was not a forest fire was contained to the lodge as I understand

Never took the ferry from Baie Comeau sounds like an adventure though From Godbout is easy access for sure. Godbout had gas station and had an open motel right across from the gas nothin fancy but it works. Warm and Happy. Ferry is cool trip for sure did it as part of a 2 week trip from Shawinigan to Lac st Jean to Sept Isles and across to Matane from Godbout and back on the south shore and crossing on the truck at Trois Rivere was an awesome ride.

thanks for the info Bob see you for the Thanksgiving ride (snow gods willing of course) Don

I am looking to use my gps just for the sled and atv not for the car

wondering where to get the best most recent trail map of Quebec?? want to overlay the topo canada with it Seen a few are they all the same? Around $99 bucks i think Who is using what? I know there is a free map, but is the other more detailed it must be I would think Looking to use it on a garmin oregon 300 thanks for any info don

I like it. Should be able to ride up to the HI and meet you Bill and explore the area some more. See you at the HI Don ps I know you stay in Jonquiere most of the season Bill What week do you head up? Maybe before the ride in I can look for you I am sure I will be up there before the jan 20

A friend brought me through that area on the way back in to trois riveres from running the gaspe Is a place called Bernierres or something right along the route 20 hotel bar restaurant/diner and truck stop owner real nice guy very sled friendly was good area will for sure go back let me know when you are going

Hell yes they are very sweet. They even serve you drinks while you are in the pool. Its only money. Well spent for sure,

I must say the waterfall hot tub is a mystery for sure. I knew alot of places in the video but not that one. Is not the Manoir for sure, Looks like a great place for an after trail cocktail or two.

pas de probleme Groomer I will do.

I am sure la tuque has alot for sure got to love it. Groomer I am going to look you up this season when i reach the gaspe for sure

First real snow today. Grass completely covered Roads too. Won't last but is nice too see it back again. The season is coming for sure.

you know i met bernard only once a few years back I know how much he did for this sport I know how much he helped many sledders I been wanting to stop by the Safari I just felt kinda strange since i really didn't know him . I am for sure aware of how much he meant to the region here and i am hoping to help out with the club here and get involved directly I live about 1.5 miles from the Safari so you guys who start out of the Safari will be glad to know i am right here and I will report for you. Guess its time to introduce myself to jocelyn I know what its like to wait all year for the neige and I myself used to endure the 8 hr or so ride to paradise Not to mention the 8 hrs back glad to help

How long has it been closed? I know it at least two maybe three seasons since i rode that twisty twisty trail. I like all trails and hate to see any closed for sure. was it being logged up there or just eliminated?? I am trying to make contact here with the local club to volunteer. will try to find out its fate for this season I will see if i can ask Richard from mekinac about 347 and post it.

thanks for the info everyone i really appreciate it. now that i'm here in quebec maybe i can finally get to meet some you this season in person. looking forward to the season for sure

I will for sure keep everyone updated as we get going up here. I am a rider and live for winter. Whatever the conditions I will give them honestly. Good or Bad

thanks phil will check out reima for sure

thanks snowbound good info you sound like my kind of rider. all over Quebec on the best trails in the world... let me know when you are heading for shawini i am in mont carmel right nearby happy trails

thanks crazysnow for the reply. I am living here in Quebec and will be using my gear alot more now. (weather permitting) let it snow ALOT So i am ready to make an investment in something that will last and be warm and comfortable too. where do you usually ride up here in snowmobile heaven aka Quebec??? Where do you start from for a trip???

I'm getting some new gear for the season thinking of KLIM I know is expensive, but I would like some feedback on it Is it worth the price? Who likes what????? choko, HJC.....etc just wondering Iceman

Heavy frost for the first timel here in Shawinigan this morning. A few very light snow flurries this afternoon the first here since last march. Winter in Quebec is right around the corner. When the snow is flying for real you will know about it as soon as I see it. Iceman

Yes for sure is the Casino at the Fairmont in Charlevoix, Very nice place. I knew the first one was on 93 but where i was not sure

I know I have been past this many times but where i am drawing a blank
