RoadRunner Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Groomer, I loved your pick of the 20 wide in the bush, you certainly know how to find a good worm hole when you want too! Today we left auberge 31 and headed for aventure Pimaucan, Thanks to MarksVT's post from last year mentioning that this was a good location to head for, we had great riding all day, putting on 230 miles and back to auberge by 6pm. Here are some of todays pics showing varying conditions, a mid afternooon soup at Onatchaway hit the spot as aventure Pimaucan was not serviing yet, there coffee was great though. Bras Louis was groomed perfectly this am, always a nice run! and the upper end of bras louis, though not ever groomed was great single track going too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadRunner Posted December 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 We had a variety of conditions today from great groomed trails, to single track running to fresh powder , just doesn't get any better! The aventure Pimaucan would be an awesome overnight or extended stay location, A newly constructed bar and dining area should work well for this winter season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meeting some friends here at lunch after a morning scouting run northeast of here.. Have a great day Plenty of fuel here at Pipmucan, 2500 gallons or so?

Saguenay Bill Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 Hey guys do me a favor. Tell the folks at Pipmaucan that you see they are an advertiser on Quebec Rider. Last year I asked the owner if he would like to be an advertiser and he said he would. I told him I would make it easy for him by me paying for it and that he could pay me back this winter. Thanking you in advance for the help. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
