Switchback 2006 Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 My snowmobile Club! In St-Vallier, on trail 5 east to go to Montmagny! In the mountains of Massid du sud! On trail 547, Massif du sud! On trail 549, Massif du sud! At Saint-Philémon, on the edge of the river du Pin, these glaciers are probably the most photographed by snowmobilers. At a height of 8 meters by 32 meters in length, they are even more spectacular in February. The bluish cast come from mineral infiltration! Discovered there 8 years, the Mont-Saint-Magloire, from a height of 918 meters, is the highest peak Appalachian. The tower on Mount, from a height of 10 meters, is easily accessible by trails and offers a view of 360 to 100 km. It is possible to see Quebec City, the Isle of Orleans, Mont Megantic and mountains of Maine. The tower on Mount is Behind my sled! This one is on the ATV trails! I hope to give you a taste of our landscape and the quality of our trails... This was 2006-2007.....& this was not a realy good year. Imagine the 2008-2009 season! The forecasts are positive for a good year with snow! :good: Best regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smclelan Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 We stopped there 2 yrs ago coming back from a trip on the other side of the river. When we were there there was a bunch hitching up horses to sleighs for a sleigh ride. Very nice clubhouse and as I remember the food was top notch!!

S pump Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 I think that section of trail was around Armagh. Freaky thing, we were in a group of four just ripping down the railbed and stopped to wait for our buddies. Went back to find them and the railbed collapsed from when we went by and our two buddies came along................I have pictures on my other computer I'll post later............scary deal. Slowed me down a couple notches.......like a warning.............we were running 80-100 just seconds before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dblacks Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Had heard from Jane that that was in the talks, much needed to keep all 4 clubs a float and also working together for that entire area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doobraap Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 That sounds like good news. I think... I am a member at St Sabine as well. Will they keep the clubhouses as they are? Are they just combining the resources to get more out of the $$? Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
