Florida Snowman Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 You still headed up Tom or gonna wait? In a holding pattern Phil. Maybe head up mid week or start a big trip on the 9th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman Posted February 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Went out by car to spot some trails, looks not bad to me. Guys are out saw about 4 riders. Groomers are out and traffic will loosen things up for sure. The fact we had so much snow here before this rain saved us here. Other places not so much. They got junk now.

Phil 1 Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 In a holding pattern Phil. Maybe head up mid week or start a big trip on the 9th. Well advised, last trip got good just as we left. Hopefully I can turn this sled and get more riding done before April... Was thinking of buying that Apex Jim has been talking about but a sled that has sat for 5 or 6 years can have issues of its own... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris1v Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 iceman are you saying that the trails are ok to ride around shawinigan? If so i may take a ride down this weekend. less than 3 hrs for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman Posted February 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 I'm saying I see others out Riding, I have not been out personally by sled yet. What I have seen from the trail heads looks ok its not wiped out to dirt. Groomers have been out. As far as if its worth it that is up to you, its not as great as before the rain for sure. I'm leaving sunday headed west to abitibi. Trail definitely good enough to get out. That's all i can tell you. From the sounds of others its much worse in Saguenay with many places down to dirt. Not here. Options on where to go limited for Saddlebagging for sure. Hope it helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris1v Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Thanks alot Iceman. From your report i will opt not to go, very much appreciated. We would want to saddlebag.
