Pipemaster Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 I can’t believe they actually opened this section ! Trail is a mess, no snow on the road and logging trucks flying down the narrow road. Very dangerous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowmaster2112 Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 Wes are you talking about from the 13 south junction outside of town towards Clova ? has been shit in recent years until you get 10-15 miles out. They should build a new trail if they are going to continously plow that road. Wait till someone gets creamed by a logging truck and see what happens with Intact Insurance. Will make the Rouyn-Noranda incident seem like nothing. Hope your having a BLAST regardless !!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markusvt Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 (edited) 13s out of Parent is perfectly fine, groomed the whole way. He is talking about 83W towards Clova. There are 30 miles plowed and sanded . Loaded logging trucks that want to kill you. Trail should definitely not have been opened.

NSHM Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 (edited) The map shows closed from Wemotaci west to parent, and from the 345 junction south to Casey. Edited January 25 by NSHM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes for sure, was in Clova Monday for lunch via Lepine rd. and spoke with a group from VT. that were less than impressed with the 83 East of Clova. By any chance you?

markusvt Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 Le Pine not groomed, l don't see that happening ever again but who knows. It also is plowed for 30 miles on the upper end we were told. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markusvt Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 Guys are riding Casy to Barrage Gouin, no problem. Also riding Wemo to Barrage Gouin. Just that part of the 83 not groomed. Parant is loaning their groomer over there now to help. 1 hour ago, NSHM said: The map shows closed from Wemotaci west to parent, and from the 345 junction south to Casey.

No grooming, pretty much single track from Le Pensive , logging and plowed the last 12 miles into Clova. The cut across from Lepine to Cheval was not broke.

So if I take 13 north to 83 and hang a left to go west to Clova that is all normal, correct? Thank you👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisWright Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 If memory serves me right, they had sections next to the road groomed along this section last year, basically bouncing on and off the road to get through this stretch. Does anyone else recall this? If so, wonder if they just haven't opened that yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct about that section last year .. but this is a different section of 83 that is now affected that is further west of the 13 -83 Junction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceman Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 (edited) Lots can change in two weeks. With TQ63 gone to access Abitibi “the west” TQ83 I would think will get better. The access there to connect is important to the economy. We need more snow still in many regions.

iceman Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 (edited) Shit i missed the 30 miles part. Question is? Are they trucking there all winter or moving? if it all winter then it’s a major screwup. Edited January 25 by iceman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markusvt Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 (edited) Green is now ready. Red is a NG until the bridge is done, maybe 1/30. Edited January 26 by markusvt dooright and iceman 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 Direct from Alliance du Nord Thank you for your interest in our trail. Trucks will be on the trail all season long, covering 60 km. I must confess that we are currently looking at changing the track completely in collaboration with the forestry company. You will have all the information this weekend on the Facebook club alliance du nord 2.0 mccaffrey, 800R MXZ X and dooright 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
