    Three snowmobilers dead after avalanche in Sainte-Anne-des-Monts
    Rescuers found them several hours after the slide.
    Three snowmobilers lost their lives on Tuesday evening, possibly swept away in an avalanche near Sainte-Anne-des-Monts, Gaspésie.
    Rescuers began searching for the three people around 5:30 p.m., when an emergency call was placed to 911. They were possibly surprised by an avalanche in the Mont Médaille sector of the Chic-Chocs.
    "A team of rescuers from a specialized emergency measures team, who are trained in avalanche situations in particular, went to the area to rattissage," says Frédéric Deshaies, spokesman for the Sûreté du Québec (SQ). Local firefighters and paramedics also pitched in.
    The SQ initially reported two missing, but the number has been revised upwards. They were found late in the evening in the search area, in critical condition.
    Unfortunately, the three men were pronounced dead shortly after being rushed to hospital. The victims were all in their thirties and from the Eastern Townships.
    "An investigation is still underway to understand the exact circumstances surrounding this sad event," says Deshaies.

    Had to leave KM31 in the rain, but the first tracks from L’or Piste to Forestville made up for it. Tons of snow.

    Hello snowmobilers
    Unfortunately, in order to respect the landowners and ensure that we retain our fragile rights of way, we are obliged to close our trail for the stage. It is currently being surfaced for the last time.
    The North Range fence will be closed tomorrow morning.
    We're aware that there's still a lot of snow up there. But we won't be able to access it with our machinery.
    We've done our utmost to please you.
    We hope to see you all next year.
