    Alerts for: Charlevoix

    Winter storm warning in effect for: Baie-Saint-Paul area La Malbaie area a major winter storm is forecast.

    From 50 to 70 centimeters of snow expected between tonight and Wednesday.

    Evaluate the possibility of delaying non-essential travel until conditions improve. The rapid accumulation of snow will make travel difficult. Visibility can be suddenly reduced at times in strong snow. The snow will be accompanied by strong winds from Tuesday evening.

     

    Amen!  Praise Jesus, Moses & Allah!  Hallelujah!

    (Hoping the ground's good n cold)

    If Quebec gets an equal amount of snow that we got rain yesterday the above is believable, it rained here in PA like mad for 18 hours.

    I hear the Chic Chocs have a lot of snow already in elevation.

    Before trails/grooming...How do you guys keep tabs if there is much snow on the ground in RDL .?

    Must be some decent web cams somewhere in the area.

    Yes plenty of snow....

    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.

    Frogs are not the primary species I see in Quebec in the winter. In fact I can honestly say I’ve NEVER seen a frog in Quebec in the winter. They would probably be safe under the ice...

    Snowmobile  retractable wheels ...Manual or Hydraulic .....Ask Saguenay Bill for further...Great @ gas stations too....

    Just drive over what ever the planet presents, carbides are cheap. I’ve found out that reverse gives better control on non-snow covered surfaces. I’m not a wheel fan...

    Wow, Fast responses. I must not be the only guy thinking about snowmobiling. lol. Thanks for the great info. Phil, thanks for breaking the trail up 23 last January. I was one of the guys on a Sidewinder just behind you. I'll be back on a SkiDoo this year.

    Your welcome though it was a team effort. I’ll be on a 2019 BCX XRS this year more up to that type of task. I remember meeting you guys at L Etape. 

  6. If you run 85 in there are permits available at service stations along main road. If coming from Amqui area there are none available though Tim at Moose Valley surely sells them. Make reservation far in advance if you want to stay there only 5 little cabins. It is a most wonderful ride and highly recommend it. Oh yes watch out for moose they don’t call it moose valley for nothing.
