Mid Range

Despite the mild weather which make trails soft, trails are in good shape specially north of ste-anne du lac. Hats off to Piteman and Alliance du nord SC. Everything was freshly groomed. Central was packed friday nite with a "chansonnier". Still some good riding in the upper gatineau and upper laurentians.

No saw Jim...the groomer operator took care it. Have a safe trip.

I thought we were cooked for the season with this unusual mild weather but old man winter dumped between 6 to 9 inches of heavy wet snow.Perfect type of snow to keep us going. Did some scouting around maniwaki. Going back to Parent friday morning for the third time...yeah!!! Beer is always good at the central.

I don't even ride myself........trails stated in yellow on the website. Another mild week ahead and no snow in the forecast. Worst season since early 80's in my area. You will need to drive further north.

We went to ville-marie feb 13-14.it was thin back then. It has been mild since a week.

Posting from Pourvoirie Lavérendrye...trail is like a hardwood floor around here(incredible). Yes it's time to get back to Maniwaki before the thaw.

Wether he takes 13 north then 322 or 63 west he's gonna end up at le classic for gas then le domaine.

Talked with Dominic's wife in Clova. Not looking good for that trail this winter. Groomer issue and too much snow upon the road. But Abitibi is nice so far for us.

where the red circle is.......look up for lac trévet.

Have a good trip.....Leaving tomorrow for a 7 day trip. if you go thru Ville-Marie let me know how the conditions are. Will be in Ville-Marie next Tuesday. I've been told they have snow but not for sale.

call them.....they might have some. You can get there by sled too. http://www.bericsport.com/en/home.html

Relais Windigo went up in smoke in 2016

Near cents lacs...pic above on 319 near mekoos

The place itself is closed Greg.Sorry for the confusion. Yes local trail is open from 13 to 33/53. Great ride again today. We left baskatong to ste-anne du lac to mekoos-lunic-cent lacs down to fer à cheval.Great conditions

Facebook is now a powerful tool for trail conditions. Anyhow we crossed baskatong reservoir yesterday and it is thin with rocks around windigo village but things are improving towards ste-anne du lac. North of ste- anne du lac trails were table top. TQ13 via Notawissi(closed btw) up to mitchi reservoir and down to ste-anne.wow!! two thumbs up to Piteman SC
