Thanks for the pics. Hope you guys have another fabulous ride. Will be coming up Saturday and can't wait. Cant remember when the Gouin had that little of snow going into late January in quite some time. Did Volkswagen move their headquarters there ?  LOL

What's your guys secret for not getting lost off trail? Just a good GPS? Real curious how you know the ice thicknesses on the various lakes.  Do you have a local traveling in your group?

Looks nice up there!  Did you use Arrivecan when crossing. I know its no longer required, just curious if its easier, or a waste of effort.

Looking forward to following your adventure, and heading up soon too!

No ArriveCan for us .. all back to pre COVID days

Very nice trails both ways all the way from Mattawin to Casey.  Casey to the 83 junction bumpy every time we have been on it this year.  83 good at least until the Gouin turn off.  Buddies we met up with confirmed 10 miles either side of parent still terrible as it was a week earlier.

We ended up in La Dore for lunch one day.  Restaurant closed for the day, no servers.  Very low snow compared to other places.  A few warm days they will be starting all over again.

Lots of upgrades at Kanawata.  New barn, new grader, all new windows, new sliders looking out over the lake.  And a new gas guy and a new server, (I'll leave it at that, but worth the trip).  Gas is $2.90L.

2.90 is about about 8.65 a gallon American after current exchange rate

almost borders extortion 

when I got my 1200 new back in 2020 and rode that 10K miles that season it would have cost me roughly 8600.00 in gas for the season. Only paid 9700 for the sled.
