JToys Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 Was originally thinking of going up to LSJ starting in St Foy, but have thought the Thetford Mines up to Riviere du loup might be a better choice based on the recent snowfall. Anyone have any updated info on the trail conditions in this area? We are basically coming up for a 2 1/2 day run and are looking for the best area to ride.

The area has had recent snowfall but also has not had very cold temps. Last Ride for the year hopefully it will be OK. KenP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsail24 Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Our group is in Thetford Mines now(Comfort Inn) and we are moving more east for tomorrow and the next day. It is really thin and warm in this area at present. We were more south today just above Jackman and the trails were nice and lots of snow and the trails were groomed. We were in St Georges (VERY THIN) don't head there. Hopefully we will find better conditions tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loafer Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Thanks jsail we were planning on heading to Thetford tomorrow but would love to hear where you find the best snow as you head east. Still warm there? Or would you suggest we stick around our home town (Sugarloaf area) where the elevations have a ton of snow now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
