smclelan Posted December 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Hopefully this winter they will be stopped. It must have been very expensive to keep the roads open there last winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groomer Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 while waiting for a reply on the french forum,thought about that.forgot about a good friend of mine who comes for moose hunting at the camp,you won t find a better reply than that. just received an e mail from him. mont louis area : they are done.access road should nt be plowed samething for petite vallée and cloridorme. l ascension area ,roads could be plowed for a while .they are late a bit.short period of time. for this area they ll use sleds and maybe a pick up truk with tracks for maintenance. roads will be plowed only for a major break down !!! ps: you don t need a thousand friends,you just need the right one !!! jean-guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
