actionjack Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 New snow. Gotta be better and Alain's last report was good enough for me. Have a good trip! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
towing Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 My friend Coyote did a trip St-Donat/reservoir Gouin round-trip starting last sunday morning and coming back at the truck in St-Donat wednesday noon (yesterday) and it have a good 4" of new snow on the truck For this last storm, here at home in the south we probably had around 3" today, it still slightly snow now with strong winds and the second part of this storm should hit us tomorroy. forecast seems to had reduce their snow amount but let's wait to see. I will be on the trails next sunday so able to report conditions on next monday for sure. The other good thing for the condition: sunny with max temp sat/sunday: -18C/-19C B) winter seems finally coming... Alain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy No Mosquitos but a wolf came trucking thru the parking lot of the compound here last night while we were eating dinner. Maybe heading over to Parent/Clova area today. Man it's cold up here this a.m. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking of heading up that way and never did that loop around the top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowmaster2112 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Waking up today at Meekos. What an awesome place!!! The food here is 5 star for sure!!! Left the Goiun reservoir yesterday morning and took the 83 to Parent for lunch. Perfect ride. lots of snow, very little traffic and beautiful but cold day. We took the 13 trail down and stopped at 100 lacs for a quick break and over to Meekos for the night. All riding up here is fantastic right now. Very low traffic and Plenty of snow and groomed trails. Today we make our way back to Real Masse in St Zenon to end our little 3 day ride. Not doing the whole 83/93 loop but I have done it several times in the past. I would imagine if you wanted to do it now (aprox. 1100 mi) around that it would be more than fine And you probably wouldn't run into 50 sleds the entire trip. COLD here again this a.m..........-27c..........brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
