Mainerenegade Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 I am looking for a recommendation for a place to stay and leave my truck and trailer at on the top side of Lac St Jean. I am looking to loop through Chibougamau. Thanks in advance. PLAYHARD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Je me souviens Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 I have never left my truck in that area before to start a trip but the link below is for the website that has info on the 49 parallel trail. There is a map showing places to stay in that area. Probably some good info there to start making phone calls from https://grandesrivieres.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Carte_motoneige_2022-finale.pdf PLAYHARD and MrGutz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman Posted December 9, 2022 Report Share Posted December 9, 2022 Loop through Chibougamau? You could start lots of places West side of Lac here.

Yeah, us Yammi pilots need to plan to ride that stretch with our LinQ jerry can buddies. MrGutz and P Hardy 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainerenegade Posted December 9, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2022 Yes I am aware we will be carrying extra fuel for that stretch. Looking to ride 200 plus miles a day, I believe when I looked it would take 4 days to do the loop? PLAYHARD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of going into Val D Or, as a suggestion, consider heading east from Senneterre on 83 to Pourvoirie du Lac Failllon. It's an awesome spot. Very clean, food is great and fuel on site. It would make it a 293 mile day BUT the first 161 miles to Lebel Sur Quevillon will go by very very quickly. That would also give you a couple of hours extra the following day in case you have an issue in the remote area.
