    I only see it closed to the east towards 355 

    not to the west towards Repos

    it is towards the east i meant, trying to come up the river and then turn left towards mattiwin

  2. Been visiting fcmq maps probably 6 times a day, so i pay attention, goal is to ride out of quebec city to roberval

    1) trail 23 from le tape to les sabels normally this trail is groomed religiously, is it passable, have not seen one pass with groomer to do anything

    2) trail 83 from relay22 to roberval, what if anything is going on and is it passable?

    3) trail 3 out of quebec city, is it passable to st raymond? and is it passable to trail 369?

     

    I know fcmq says closed but what is the boots on the ground report?

    The big change this year in insurance related... i'm not sure if it have already been discussed here but here the facts

    There is an increase of legal proceeding against snowmobile clubs in the last years, especially this last spring there is one that ended up with a $3 000 000 settlement against Rouyn Noranda snowmobile club and there are others pursuits pendings... https://www.canadianlawyermag.com/practice-areas/personal-injury/snowmobile-club-negligent-for-a-tree-stump-that-permanently-injured-a-man-quebec-superior-court/376167

    It not only increase the insurance fees for the clubs/FCMQ to get covered but also tend to be an insurability problem and if no company want to insure... no snowmobile clubs will take the chance to open a trail. It's not a joke it is a very serious issue.

    So this season each snowmobile club have to follow some new security rules for trails opening, all the signs and opening work on trail need to be complete and they have to fill up a form that they sign and push to fcmq before activate the dozer GPS and the trails can show up open in Imotoneige.

    Other than that are the usuals bugs and delays that can happen with Imotoneige system and the clubs volunteers those lasts days are more on trail work than the web for sure!

    We were almost on dirts just a week ago and there are between 2 and 3 feets of snow to the ground right now after this second storm yesterday in my area and many others. Imotoneige picture will change a lot in the next week...

     

    I had a feeling it was something like that, i always pay attention to the imoto map to see where progress is being made and it seems this year things are bogged down for the up to date status of the clubs work, iceman seems to have a connection for emails from clubs that are very enlightening
