  1. I inquired about that loop at the Drummondville show with the folks at the Gaspesie kiosk. That orange trail looping above Carelton is a groomed and maintained trail, when you reach the apex of that loop the trail branching off leading up to the 595 is a non groomed and non maintained trail due to a bridge that is closer to the 595 that can not support the weight of the Groomer any longer, trail is marked and sleds are going through but it’s an offtrail route.

  2. Yup DERROGATION you’re right on the money there Playhard. 

    Spoke with a guy representing the Laurentians tourism office for snowmobiling for the region at the Drummondville show and that’s exactly what’s in the works holding off the right of passage for this year. Apparently there are some swamps that needed to be crossed and yup back to the frogs again, a protected species of frog is living in these swamps. So we all know where this is going.

    According to the rep this is the last bureaucratic paperwork they need for the right of passage and seeing it got too late into the season to have it completed the protect was postponed for next season. He went on to assure me that linking trail will be absolutely open for next season. Let’s keep our fingers crossed.

  3. Spoke with them at the Drummondville show, the Signature name is only temporary for this year, next year it will be a Sheriton. They say same rules apply to snowmobilers as in the past and are welcome. All though I’ve never stayed there they told me this year there will be a 20$ deposit to leave your rig there while out sledding. If you’re a guest in the hotel you get your 20$ back.

    Hi All, 

    Looking to see if anyone knows of a snowmobile accessible only cabin rental, looking to ride mostly off trail from a remote base camp - I understand this presents the need to tow in supplies and gas, but we are looking at it as an overall adventure!  Let me know if you have any suggestions.

    THINK SNOW

    This one is what you’re really looking for, very remote and in the perfect spot. Call to see if they’ll consider renting.

  5. Starting from Mt.Laurier Comfort Inn, St.Raymond Le Roquemont. St.Felicien Le Jardins, Chibougamau Le Nordic, Senneterre Senabi and back to Mt.Laurier or visa versa, of course there are plenty of others in these towns, these I mentioned are snowmobile friendly.
