markusvt Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 Doable. First 4.7 miles out of St Raymond, ice and dirt, but ridable slowly. Next 15 miles ice and low snow, but ridable. After that, all good up 23 and across 83 to the HI. How are things looking now? I would like to make the run from roquemont to lac st jean any advice?

bob_o27 Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Thanks hope they get this 5-15 cm they are expecting should help out. Doo4adoo- it's the best trail if you haven't run 23 up to L'etape you are missing out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg du Vermont Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Left the HI at 9am this past Sunday, stopped at Mont Apica for gas and soup, stopped on the trail a few times, arrived in St Raymond at 2:30. Mont Apica gas to St Raymond is 115 miles. If you can't go that far you'll need to stop in l'etape for gas (well marked intersection) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stupe Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Does anyone know if you can go from St. Raymond to Quebec City via trail 3 yet? We are leaving St. Raymond and heading to Tadoussac (trail 3) in a week...getting nervous about snow coverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Not 100% sure but I believe there is an issue with right of way for TQ 3 Past Quebec City not far.You need to go up trail 23 to Le Tape then down 369 to get around then you can head for tadoussac on TQ 3 east.Like i said not 100% sure. Have not heard of anyone passing this way yet this year.Snow should not be an issue by next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are leaving St. Raymond and heading to Tadoussac (trail 3) in a week...getting nervous about snow coverage. I posted on Trail Conditions 2011 that friends of mine rode from St Raymond to L'Etape, down 369 to Point a Pic, then from to there to the HI. See my post on that thread.

See my post on that thread. Yeah I saw that Bill. I was wondering from St. Raymond to Quebec City via 3. We won't have time to go up through L'Etape and back down to 3. I'm sure it will be fine in a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob_o27 Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 Has any one rode 73 up to lac edouard and then on to 355 to 83? This is also a real nice ride but haven't seen anything posted on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOBLER Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 Has any one rode 73 up to lac edouard and then on to 355 to 83? This is also a real nice ride but haven't seen anything posted on it? Came back down that way sat the 15th, fine until about 30 miles north of new trail trun to letape, groomer was brocken down on trail and 355 had not been groomed even once yet, pretty rough for that 30 miles, then plowed road into lac eduard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob_o27 Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 Sounds like something to avoid! Thanks for the info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
