Pipeman Posted January 29 Report Share Posted January 29 Shaw to Lac Edouard was so so. Left Sunday am from Domain Edouard ended up at Pourvorie La Dore tonight awesome place!! Most of 355 was good fields around LSJ ok but warmth will kill them quickly if it happens. 93 was good so far. dooright, PLAYHARD, mccaffrey and 9 others 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pipeman Posted January 29 Author Report Share Posted January 29 That little cabin was at Domain Edouard. Pourviere La Dore is the pic with the Christmas tree. I was going to take some food porn pics for you Chris but I was to hungry!! It is about 15 miles of the 93 north when you pass the power line on the way to Chibougamau, just a white square sign on your left, then it’s a small bush trail for 14km to get here.

We bought fuel for our sleds and spare cans and you can order whatever for supper but I would say $175 Canadian including breakfast and supper etc…but they gave us a lot of food and put us in a large lodge. English was ok, 3 young guys from France doing the cooking and helping out. Real nice and the cream of onion soup was outstanding!! http://quebecrider.com/forums/uploads/monthly_2024_01/IMG_1525.thumb.jpeg.7da85ec44b47f16b8fe43adf06417488.jpeg http://quebecrider.com/forums/uploads/monthly_2024_01/IMG_1527.thumb.jpeg.52733990d3e5b0db41e37a94c99a7f5f.jpeg http://quebecrider.com/forums/uploads/monthly_2024_01/IMG_1526.thumb.jpeg.30bd9b9a5b202212e3a8eff2684163c5.jpeg http://quebecrider.com/forums/uploads/monthly_2024_01/IMG_1523.thumb.jpeg.6a8097626d968648ce61ca4f1d71096a.jpeg Edited January 30 by Pipeman Je me souviens, iceman, Florida Snowman and 5 others 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipeman Posted January 29 Author Report Share Posted January 29 Tonight we are at the Nordic in Chibougamau, marina was full…bummer. The trail up was good and fresh groomed but if a little 80’s style bush scares you then wait because some sections had stubble sticking up. http://quebecrider.com/forums/uploads/monthly_2024_01/IMG_1528.thumb.jpeg.d810bf296a865540d6e11f8d177bf471.jpeg zeusand, Florida Snowman, smclelan and 7 others 8 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pipeman Posted January 31 Author Report Share Posted January 31 93 from Chibougamau to Matagami was damn near mint the whole way. We passed at least three groomers. As always, Chapais had the best trails. Staying at a Gite in Matagami tonight $$$ and no supper just breakfast. towing, zeusand, Snobeeler and 10 others 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pipeman Posted January 31 Author Report Share Posted January 31 We have not seen any trail police the whole trip yet. Do you mean the burned down hotel in Matagami? Gas station is there nothing else. Only one place to eat and it’s right across the street wasn’t bad. Florida Snowman, Je me souviens, PLAYHARD and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pipeman Posted January 31 Author Report Share Posted January 31 Thanks, Tom will do. Also they rerouted you on the 93 it is not a long boring rail bed the whole way. There was a good 70 miles that was actually fun before it popped back out on the rail bed. It was like this several years ago too. Makes the trip much more fun Je me souviens and PLAYHARD 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowmaster2112 Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 I remember that reroute back some years ago. If memory serves me it was good trail but had bamboo BAD sticking up everywhere maybe it’s better now PLAYHARD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
