Would you know if there is good snow cover to sled in the town of Amqui as we were looking to stay at the Ambassadeur or would it be better to stay in Pointe a la Croix?

Hi Guys,
Just talk to andre from Pointe-a-la-Croix he has a B&B " Gite la Maison Verte " said there was a two foot base. NICE !!!!!!! This is a great place.

Shane don't even think that way! There will be snow for the Gathering. We are heading to the Gaspe Wednesday evening to ride for a few days and when we return Sunday night I will post some pics that will put your mind at ease.

We are about 30 minutes northeast of Quebec city right now and the trails are terrific. Past the groomer heading up 369 toward le tape, and it wasn't the first time that trail was groomed. Trail 3 was groomed perfect. Plenty of snow. Signage is still going up, but lots of sleds out riding. We decided to come up despite what the fcmq site said. Glad we did.
alot of times the local rider trail reports are the best-keep em coming.
thanks

Here is a routable 2011 Quebec map.
Inside folder is application and read me text.
Does anyone have a 2012 Quebec map-for a garmin gps?

I was talking to Dale today from the club in Chandler. Most clubs in the Gaspesie are out but not completely done grooming and signing. The 597 from Chandler North is being groomed tonight and he expected Murduchville to come south this weekend. Groomer just groomed his section today for the fisrt time. There should be a big difference in the trail conditions map on Tuesday afternoon.
This would be good news-as we would like to make a trip out there on 1/12

Thanks for the report Team MAINE! Looks like a great time-bring back some of that white gold-as we need it here in Maine-alot of us are ready to head north of the river if we dont get snow soon.

Hi Folks, I have another question regarding my plan to return to Quebec for a sledding trip. I have a US passport but my 19 yr old son does not. Will he need a passport to cross into Quebec and then return or will his driver's license be sufficient? Many Thanks!!
Yamaha Jim
You will either need a passport or passport card. I did purchase a passport card for my son-this is the less expensive way to go.

Excellent. Thanks for the info!
Still looking for a place on the mtn-for next week. Passion/31 all booked. Any ideas out there as there still isnt enough snow in the city to sled to the mtn.
Thanks

Thanks-safe parking at the 31? How long of a drive from the city to 31?
Chicoutimi-Nord
Trail 116
This trail is to open on 12/22-I need some help here(as my map doesnt show local trail #'s) will this trail run from Chicoutimi over the river to Saint Honore onto trail 93? Is there a bridge to sled over the river?

Thanks for looking into this for me-we will be there this thursday 1/12-hope to meet you at the clubhouse this weekend.
Maybe the secretary should let Info Motoneigistes know-so they can update their website from being closed to open.
We cant wait to ride your trails!
