[Emergency 911 Locations]

I have seen them in remote areas and a lot more in populated areas. They seem to be mostly accessible by a vehicle. They are places to meet with rescuers/first aid. Not to be confused with the Airmed helicopter rescue points. Those are different

Second trip this week to Moose Valley. Never tire of this ride.  250 mile day. 8:15 and back at 4:45. Two gas stops at Squatec, no coffee breaks. Lodge was very busy.

Mike, Where is Moose Valley? Thanks

 

[Enter NB from Quebec]

Thanks Mark! I see NB has a nice map similar to iMotoneige.

[Enter NB from Quebec]

We are thinking about starting in Montmagny and heading into NB for a few days. Looks like Trail 35 above Edmunston is our best bet to connect with NB. Is this correct or are there better options. Will buy passes beforehand. Will we need to do anything else to enter NB? Thanks

sorry to hear about that Snobeeler.  Unbeleivable that would happen at 1400 miles. Just curious did anyone change out those springs or drop the rear suspension since new or was it all factory put together ?

Yes, heavy springs installed by dealer. They are a excellent dealer so doubt anything they did. Will know more when it comes apart. This happened on high speed run between Chapais and Val Dor in some rain.

Wow that's way too new of a sled to have that happening on. That sucks. Bummer that your trip is getting cut short. Especially for such a simple item. Maybe worth a call to the dealer in Mont Laurier or Val Dor to see if they can get you one. Tow truck ride to one of those dealerships with sled on board might be less than the cab ride to Quebec City.  Hard to believe that isn't a stock part in every brp dealer.

Was in Val Dor when found, they were no help. Place in Sennetterre tried to help. Other 3 with me had to continue loop. A buddy (good one) came up to rescue me. Just got home, local dealer ordered part. With so many doing loops up there BRP should make dealers have certain parts like this on hand or least one in each region.

What year sled, how many miles? 

2023 X-RS, 1,400 miles

[Northern loop conditions?]

Unfortunately, my trip was cut short by an upper idler wheel in rear suspension. Dealer in Sennetterre tried everywhere to find one with no luck. I can’t believe no dealers have this  vital part in stock. Did get 675 miles in 3 days so not a total loss.

That has been an option for quite some time.  I always route in miles, easier for me plan.

I am embarrassed then. Love the app.

How is it around Val d'Or-much rain? Snow depth?

It was light steady rain and 40 deg. till 11pm last night. 0f this morning, inch of fresh snow on hard fast trails now. All good in my opinion.

[imotoniege problem]

Just found out you can change between kilometers and miles in the app. When did this happen? 

[Northern loop conditions?]

We just rode from Quebec city, Roberval, Chapais, now in Val D Or. everything was very good except 50 miles above Lac Edward. More snow South than North. The run between LaDore and Chaboug was 150 miles between gas. Today we had 160 miles on before noon!
