  1. Anyone have any updates on this stretch. Did the new bridges get finished? Or is it still a ferry service thats needed east of Sept Isles?
  2. Nice!!! So the groomers are rolling. Any idea how far they've been?
  3. https://www.facebook.com/100080912606430/posts/pfbid02BNTutQKYfeoUnjPPNkfdTT1gMruxBXtzqriCCFBBcTT9PwRJKerCxgoEPC41bhG6l/?app=fbl 75 cm in 24 hrs.
  4. Wow 64 and 73. Young enough to know better. Very sad. Condolences to the family.
  5. So whats the deal if you aren't subscribed / insured with airmedic? They still come and you get a 4 or 5 figure bill for the airlift afterwards? Or will they deny you a flight? Completely agree getting the patient to a road or landing area is the big challenge. Witnessed an incident near home. Injured party was maybe 2 miles from the nearest road / town. Relatively good place in comparison to some of the remote places we get riding. Was a 3 hour process to get medics in, victim stabilized and transported out to the air ambulance on the back of a side by side on a backboard. Medics wouldn't ride in behind me on my sled with 2 up seat. Had to wait for volunteer fire department to give them a ride in. Once in the air ambulance he was at the hospital 200 km away in under an hour. Was a big eye opener on what the extraction process can be. Sold me on a tek vest that day.
  6. Saint Donat. Some good lookouts there. Can catch the St Come ice festival if you go mid February which is nearby. Also Devils Mountain and Windigo Chutes. Book at one of the nicer outfitters in the area. Ice Hotel is a good spot if in Quebec City. It's not trail accessible though.
  7. Trail was up the east side of the reservoir at Kanawata last winter. Great run. It does bypass the airstrip at Casey staying west of it, but you can ride in there to stay at camp de base.
  8. Lol So no one. He has nice floors. I get it. But why advertise it if the majority if your customers can't use it.
  9. Oh my how did this get screwed up. Last years solution was a one year thing I take it?
  10. Just fill in xxxxxxxxx for a vin if you dont get it in time.
  11. This actually makes things easy. Just ride this loop. http://fcmq.fcmqapi.ca/i?s=IwGmFYE4CYA4GYDsxYgNoFpyICwDZxRhJFE8RxZErIRpx5poBdMcdYYnRJ0DeWDkjl4ABhQ4QeRjlT5IokPzyzodAYkX1xa_JFlKqsPIiXQh4NaQVqMOYKNiRWmTjhx7oRHOfLB8eCZK_sDUYEz4qGTw4OzQoqLgivyClko_2Fai5pIYiOD48Eqh0mJmPqI4LmimklUgio0NzU2tLcxAA&r=2 Get to ride both interior trails twice.
  12. Not likely that that will be groomed. La cache is at the tail end of a 12 hour groom from either direction.
  13. They're under 15' of snow when you cross them. You'd think by mid winter they could just fill the creeks full of snow and carry on.

  16. If the clubs are doing their jobs the section from Baie-Johan-Beetz to Kegaska is the resl issue as it's off trail riding. Sounds like from Sept Isles east is / has been touch and go though. Hopefully the new funding formula helps this area bringing them funds they didn't have in the past. I'm sure it's a tough area to sell many permits in being end of the road / trail with low population nearby. Given the infrastructure they're building, you'd think there would be some interest in keeping it groomed up and open reliably.
  17. Opening nov 17th https://www.facebook.com/100080912606430/posts/pfbid033xVGep1429cuoCF19xKyPEtMsRCGJ8hDnmjBUcrmoa812Rj2azfiDWGngNXhmuMVl/?app=fbl
  18. They were on the map last year. You'll find the signs at them in the field. Whether cell service works or not at every one I have my doubts. Some are pretty remote where cell service definitely is non existant. In event of an emergency are still a great tool to communicate where you are.
  19. Just fill in all x's for the vin and carry on.
  20. Think it was done as a tribute / farewell to Yamaha? Or just coincidence?
