My lost 2025 trail pass purchased in the early 2024 sale that was previously replaced by the FCMQ arrived this past Friday, 11 of April. The envelope was correctly stamped October 2024. I wonder what route it took. : )
Maybe because of the delay it's a 2026 pass!!🤣

I'm not sure about the US but in the past in Ontario it has been sled club volunteers who sell the advertising (that pays for the maps) in the summer. Everything is rushed so that the maps can be printed hopefully before the sled shows but at least in time for the sled season. When they are done many of these same volunteers start getting Mou's signed and trails staked and signed. There is just no time for worrying about map changes for closing of businesses shown on the maps and late trail location changes.
I realize that, it's just a fact with paper maps. Take your best guess in late summer and hit print. It's nice to look at them and compare to the online maps after a days ride to see what ,if anything had changed. Especially this year. Plus a lot of hotels still are not listed on the online map that are on the paper ones.

Paper naps are getting harder and harder to aquire.
And are printed usually in August. Not very fluid with all the closings and changes.

It is now basically useless on my phone now.

Stayed at Drakkar and I had just learned the day before that Reggie sold it to new owners on 2/7. Just a week before we got there. After being there 4 days I can say it is definitely not as snowmobile friendly. The owner puts his car (Tesla) in the garage so only 3 or 4 sleds can fit in. Otherwise they sit outside. The breakfast is nothing like Reggie put out. They put no effort into making any food and they have limited bagels and juice etc and once out they don’t have more. I watched people get only toast. Place looks the same but is not run the same. Also they charge $20 a night if you have a trailer. It doesn’t matter if you are staying there every night they charged $20 to have a trailer there. I can only imagine what they charge if you park your trailer there and then leave on a saddlebag trip. Unfortunately I think I might pass on staying again. Time for me to look for new places. As a side note the trails were incredible. Some of the best I have seen up in Shawinigan.
Vote with your wallet.

Sadly closing confirmed for Friday, Feb 21, 2025 here at Restaurant Evasion /Golf St Pamphile. As I sit here having lunch. an employee stated the decision will not be changed as the recent change in trail openings came too late.
On a side note, trail conditions from Hotel Universal to Relais Hiboux to here, Golf St Pamphile are awesome. For past hour it has been snowing heavy. A total of 13” x 16” forecasted for today and another 6” x 7” tomorrow, Monday. Tuesday recently changed to zero.
Stay safe,

That's to bad. We had breakfast there Sunday. The place was packed and so busy and the staff was running around serving everyone that I didn't have a chance to speak to anyone about it.

I can no longer react to posts at all. As well
Have you tried to right click on an emoji, then a window pops up and says open link in a new tab, click on that then open the new one and close the old one. Every. Time.

Plus it's making you double post.

I think a lot of it has to do with the site listed as Not Secure. It is becoming worse.

Same for me at home. Chrome ,firefox or edge, but the OP is talking about the imotoneige map app.

It just means you had twice as much fun as you should have had.

While researching lunch destinations from Rivière du Loup, I read this on FB, which is related to the Rest O Rang @ TSP Evasion, the restaurant on the St Pamphile Golf Course. I've included below some social media images to refresh some memories of those who may have previously visited and for accuracy to confirm both the golf course & restaurant have the same address. If this was previously posted, my apologies. Despite researching it, I did not find it herein. Does anyone have anything to add?
Best,
Paddy O

It is with emotion that we inform you today of the closure of Rest'O Rang at TSP Évasion. February 21, 2025 will be our last day of opening. Our rental chalets will remain
available for rent, a new formula will be offered shortly. In the meantime, we invite you to come and eat a good lunch, we will be happy to welcome you. The trigger for this quick decision is of course the partial closure of trail 55 from Beauce, this trail brought 70% of our traffic in winter. The Rest'O Rang team joins us in thanking you for your presence since 2020. It was an honor for us to count you among our valued customers.

Maybe there is hope for them! It looks like the red section of 55 is green today! That section of 55 down thru Lac Etchemin from St Pamphile is one of my favorite trails in the Chaudiere Appalaches, going thru the maple groves. 35 gets a little boring. If you have ridden it ,you know.

Yup we had 2 models of them and wish they were still around.

We are using Sena's, 50R, I am pleased with the unit and its features, but range is definitely not as advertised. I would say its more like a 1/4 mile between riders vs. the 1 mile they advertise.
None of them get the range they advertise. Battery life when zero and below on yours?

They have now added the name of the waypoints to the Itinerary instead of just waypoint 1, 2, 3 to the online map, but not on the phone app...yet....you know...the one you have to pay for and would use on the trail... Baby steps.

Looks good! What's going on with trail 544 to 35 and the yellow connector off of it to 526 on trail 85 just south of where 526 hits 85?
Been red all season

Used to go there a lot from St. Zenon as a loop for lunch in the 80's and 90's. Stayed overnight a few times on saddlebag trips. It also had a bad (deserved or undeserved) reputation as a place not to leave your truck and trailer and sleds in the 90's.

It makes sense but it doesn't work for me on my phone or home laptop, these are all just band-aids that are slowing the eventual bleeding out.
