By then it will be too late and won't be needed any more!

Hopefully the outfitters,lodges and relais that we stop at in the winter that also depend on summer tourism will be able to weather this storm. It could make getting rooms tough and carrying extra gas a must. Is the Canadian government stepping up to offer any monetary help to all the businesses?

"When you live outside the city limits you usually have a septic system that needs to be pumped out about every five years.
It's a pretty big business and requires a special "Pumper Truck".
This one gets a lot of return business. Septic tank cleaned out by a local guy with a sense of humor getting a lot of business these days."
That must be the dump valve

With all seriousness I wouldn't mind spending the rest of my life there. He's only going to be around a few more years and could get me "up to speed" with everything there. My dream would be to make it like the "Joncas" or "Meekos" but only more spectacular. All my friends (snowmobiling) and others would come to visit and we would have a grand ole time.
From what I have seen in my years riding Quebec,the locals don't take kindly to non Canadians owning things that generate income like you speak of.Camps ,cottages,homes yes.I am probably wrong and someone here hopefully can correct me, but I can't recall any current American owned places I travel thru that lasted for long.

You then should have used that to buy toilet paper and you would have been able trade it for a new sled and trailer....or 1 oxygen helmet.

Buckle up,keep your head down, and good luck.....
Good time not to travel to U.S. with the Canadian dollar tanking. New sleds will be $25,000. Canadian😲

What will the virus be like in 2 weeks?

i rode a bit of the local trails last monday .....its not like the way it was before...without swelling my head up....
guys from nova scotia noticed the difference and some guys from cross point too.......they asked the waitress what happened to the trails...sad...but c est la vie !!!
they ll have to give more '' love '' to their grooming ....
on the funny side...i learned that guy went for a 6 hrs run...he told someone that it has been a loooong day....6 hrs run ....you re in vacation ...
im in a hurry .....must go to dealership !!!
jean-guy
Let your head swell...it is what it is.The more guys running a piece of equipment,the more chance for problems.
Enjoy the rest of the winter!

Since you have now become a rider...how is the new guy doing grooming your old territory?
Did you let him in on any tricks of the trade?

my favorite is when your out riding at night and your still getting hand signals.
Perfectly explained.

I would say that as long as it doesn't rain and warm up and it stays cold and snows some once in a while for the next 4 weeks you should be good to go and have a great trip!

Mark, I believe these clubs are owned by the snowmobile clubs. Imagine that in Maine? Snowmobile clubs selling alcohol! Good forecast ahead, no storm means more riding. See you end of the week, I hope.

We were there on a Saturday morning.The menu on the wall is very limited and no breakfast.What a shame.
