    Good idea! A bunch oh us were thinking of ATVing this summer (if it doesn't rain all the time) and showing our spouses how nice the area is.

    Considering the winter for most of the places we go and stay at was bad for them financially as well. Maybe consider a vacation in Quebec this summer. I know alot of QR’s do visit in other seasons. But just putting it out there if you never been when there’s no snow give it a try. Lots of stuff to explore.

    Day 4 , went out of Forestville,  east on Tq3 about a mile then all local orange trails . Definitely keeping sleds cool was a challenge after it being 50° ish yesterday and below freezing today  .  Awesome day on the trails for sure  👌! 
    Forecast for the weekend looks promising,  6+ inches hopefully..  but we're outta here for now on the way back to Vermont  . Cheers

    Thanks! For your report and the solidarity! I've been feeling bad about failing to report the past 4 days of pure joy out of Complexe Hotelier Pelchat - Hotel Les Escoumins!
    More soon, but for now... GET UP HERE! It's pretty easy to find the relatively small green area...

    Be surprised if you see it open. Ground soft, if its wet “neige printemps” cannot groom that anyway,
    signs probably picked up.

    I am a little slow getting the ride report out of our Feb 27 trip.
    Our original plan was to trailer from Nova Scotia to Pointe a la Croix Feb 27, then snowmobile to Matane catching the 2pm boat Feb 28.  However with mild weather and rain forecast on the 28th, we trailered directly to Matane the 27th.
    Feb 28
    Got up from the Quality Inn and on the 8am boat to Baie Comeau.  Off loaded, it was above 0 but still lo rain.  We took the orange trail behind the ski hill going East.  What an amazing scenic trail.  It ends on the TQ3 at the warming shack between BC and Godbout.  Stopped at the shack and put a fire on, it was a heavy mist at this point. No one was wet but we were in no rush either.  From there we went to the Travelodge for the night in BC and supper at 3 Barils,  Great food.
    Feb 29
    Flash freeze overnight, what a jack pot!  Handle bars controls all frozen solid!  Took off scratcher down.  Groomers were out in a few sections to help break up the hard crust.  Good trails all the way to Sacre Couer and stay at the Coronet.
    Mar 1
    Out from the Coronet and up the TQ93, it was the best I have ever seen it right to where you meet the first orange trail.  From there to the Chappel was good but not as good as the 93.  Lunch and off, backtracked on the TQ93 to the orange trail and turned east. One short plowed section by Domaine L or paste but great running to were the 330 meets the TQ3 above portneuf sur mer.  Right where the 330 ends we did a quick off trail to the other piece of the TQ3 avoiding running to the coast.  Into the Econolodge in Forestville for the night.
    Mar 2
    Original plan scrapped over drinks the night before, no ride to Sept Iles.  Boys wanted to go back to Mt Valin.  Back we go the way we came back to to a little more riding on the mountain.  Late lunch at the Chappel then most of the way back the 93 to the Debut of the 330.  Traveled east on it, another great trail. Stayed the second night in Forestville.  
    Mar 3
    Sunny warm day, took our riding back to Baie Comeau for the afternoon ferry.  We were starting to see some patches starting to bare up.  It was easy to tell the end was near. Loaded on the 5:00pm boat and back to Matane and the truck.
    A few pictures to share.

    iceman got a reaction from MrGutz in A new dealership to open in Trois-Rivieres. Options are good. Competition keeps the playing field level.   
    It is located in St Etienne des Gres not Trois Rivieres. It’s a new building right next to existing Dealer location. Been a BRP dealer there for a long time. Performance NC is a big group they took over around 2016. Now they are bringing in the BMW bikes as well to the new building.
