Arrived at the Roquemont at 5:00 PM. Snow and trails look good! What a difference this place is!  Have not been here for over 8 years. All redone. Place is Mint!  Headed for the Delta tomorrow. Will report back after the run tomorrow. Glad to be back up here in Quebec.

Left Saint Raymond and headed for L’Etape. Plenty of snow. Trails 7/10. Last groom 4-5 days ago. Fueled up and had a bite to eat and off to Mount Apica. Warmed up and had a quick drink. Trails 9/10 north of L’Etape. Took 23 north to 83 East into the Delta in Jonquiere.  Trails again 9/10.  Great run 197 Miles.  My Girlfriend did great on the 600 Switchback. First time riding in Canada. Will try to post some pics.

Todays Run:  left Delta and headed for Mt Valin. In town trails all freshly groomed. Go across both bridges and take a right to head for 93.  Trail went to 4/10.  The quad trail that ran beside it was all freshly groomed, snowmobile trail nope. At least it was a short run to 93. Head east on 93, back to Mint conditions. All good to K31. Had lunch and a splash of fuel and off to St. Ambroise. 93 west to 328 west to 367.  All good running. Did a loop in that area and then headed back to the Delta.  175 miles today. Not much traffic at all. Nice to sled mid week for sure.

Nice ride Oilman, did you know that you can see Mt. Valin easily from that spot by the airport? looks small from there but not when you are on top!

Yes Mike. Either in Maine or Canada. I did buy a house in Saint Agatha on Long lake. So hope to be riding out of there and sledding into Quebec from there. It’s looking better up there in last couple days.

Hi SnomoGary

The whole area is coming together for sure. Great riding where ever we went. You should be in good shape. Have a great trip. I should be back up there in a few weeks as well.

Hi neksledr,

Sorry for late response, but thought I would share this.  For some reason that part of 23 does not show up on the normal trail and grooming site. I don’t know if groomer has the gps function or not. But if you go onto St. Raymond trail report it will show when they last groomed that trail to L’Etape and other trails in and around ST. Raymond.
