  1. 2012 Trail Conditions

    in Saguenay-Lac St-Jean

    Posted

    monday I rode 100 miles. Left at 9 with 3 couples. One of the sleds had a problem and they were headed towards Forestville. Took them to Villenaue's. Ended up being a stator problem. Left Villenue's at 12 noon and brought sled to Spence's. Having valves adjusted. Sled now has 12,400 miles on it.

    Today I rode my 09 and rode 175 miles. Went to Ski-Bee- Doo for coffee and then to Scooby Raid for lunch. It was a real "I B Day". Cold and sunny.

    Received email that Grooming is back on for the Saguenay Club and that the Caribou-Conscrits will be grooming until at least this Sunday.

    thanks for all the info not to sure what we would do with out your update's

    I was planning one last saddle bag trip starting around the 19 or 20 what are you thoughs on grooming by then

    Thanks

    Unless there is at least 1 more storm (with 8"+) I would advise against it.

    You do realize that the conditions in Pittsburg are 'sub-prime' at this time?

    Yes I do I jst need to break the new sled in and at this point time and money won't allow me to go were I realy want to go but hopefully soon

    thanks for the info
