He suggests Duckhorn. Or if feeling spendy try 3 palms Duckhorn
He asks if you know Woodlands Club in Falmouth?
Tell him thanks for the wine tips. I am really into Robert Mondavi Woodbridge Merlot lol.
Heard Woodland Club is really nice, but I'm not a golfer.

Nah, that's our buddy & adventure junkie & pro sommelier Rob! Great asset on trail & off!
Beside the requisite no-drama profile, this gent can find the finest of vin rouge in the remotest of places!
Does he deliver??? One high end Merlot please.

Bob, I've got the Choko jacket which is pretty warm. I used to be able to ride comfortably at 40 below. But since the SkiDoo XS and Gen 4 chassis's came out, I have been colder. The seats are higher and the windshields for those chassis's were redesigned in that the windshield no longer has the little lip at the top.
Thanks Steven for the pic with the fire pit and you. (But a forester with a gas fire pit???).
BlueBlood, The trails have been awesome, grooming has been awesome and traffic low. Did not meet one on coming sled today from Millinocket to Libby's. There was a few spots of gravel showing on the pole line between NEOC and Millinocket today (it was fine a couple days ago). So far one ride to Mattagammon, one to Libby's, and one to Rockwood. All great. We did loop around to Patten the other day and that area could use some more snow but was passable. I heard Aroostook County is good but low snow in some fields. The snow depth everywhere is thin, but other than patten it is fine.
A gent hooked up with me today to ride. He brought up two brand new Polaris VR1 850's. The one he used today 30 miles into the ride had a detonation warning. At idle it sounded fine and ran fine the rest of the day. Went to pull the other one out of the trailer tonight and a big puddle of oil under the sled. Looks like it is coming from one of the exhaust valves. And I wanted to buy one of these sled so bad!!!

Hi Joe. I miss riding with you buddy. And miss our great happy hours. Must admit, it is nice to eat lunch inside a warm restaurant. I'm pretty free all winter if you want to come this way. But I understand you going to Quebec.
Gary is talking a week or two and coming up. He's golfing in Florida.

Correct me if I am wrong, but you get hurt out in the bush, the copter isn't going to fly out based on your phone call. I would guess an EMT has to make that call. So the EMT sleds out several hours to reach you, he okays it. Usually medics or police also need to find a landing place for the copter near the accident site, or haul you out on a sled to the nearest town, which could be hours away. I bet its is many, many hours before the copter delivers you to the type of hospital that can treat severe trauma. Again, I could be wrong. I bet 10 to 12 hours from the bush to a big city hospital.

The picture of the Moise River; looks like what is called an 'ice disc'. Maine River has had one a couple years in a row. People come from all over to see it.

2022 Jack & Sandi's Trips
in Saguenay-Lac St-Jean
Posted
Hi Jack,
I will keep riding out of my temporary home in Millinocket, Maine until Canada returns to full normalcy. Been very happy here, good trails and been a good snow season. I still miss RDL. Quite a few QueberRiders coming to Millinocket to start their Maine saddlebag trips.
Say hi to Pat and Gary for me.
Enjoying reading your posts!
