IndyAl Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 We are planning a trip for March 12th an would like to spend 3 days on the trails in Gaspe. I have been there several time previous but this year it looks like snow cover may be an issue. Can anyone comment on conditions or make recommendations where to go or stay clear of? Thanks in advance. Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sled Dog Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 We are leaving from RDL on the 8th and will be back on the 12th. If you want to call me or something I'll tell you what we ran on. Don't know if they have public computers at RDL but if so I'll post on Friday. We are not supposed to be back to RDL till around 5 so I don't know if this helps but the offer is there!!!

IndyAl Posted March 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 (edited) Just home from a 4 day trip to Gaspe. Conditions were excellent to terrible depending on where we were. The No. 5 from Matane and east was excellent. Getting into towns for gas and accomodations was scratchy and Matane was mostly bare ground last evening. Despite what some locals told us we ran out of snow trying to get into La Cache on the 595. Thank heavens for the nice lady that sold us gas and an incredible home cooked meal at the logging camp just outside of La Cache. Temps were very warm up to 10 deg C and the snow cover is deminishing fast. The locals were telling us this was a very odd winter for the Gaspe region. We still enjoyed over 800 Kms of aswome riding. Thanks to Groomer for arranging our passess and meeting with us in Albertville for a short chat. I will post some pictures in a day or two.

IndyAl Posted March 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 A few more.... #8 trail from Ralais Chic Choc down to the 595 had spectacular scenery trails were hard as concrete before the sun warmed them up. Trail side mod to keep the sleds running cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
