doobraap Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Thanks for the report and photos of the good and bad. Just got back from riding Jackman to Relais 540 and back. Rode Friday and Sat. Armstrong was great. They has some new new snow to cover the ice. Took the 545 to Lac Etchimen. LOTS of washouts and a small river going over the trail. All passable but slow. 55 through St Sabine was great as usual..... It was flawless coming back Saturday... 55 up through Pamphile was real nice as fast. A couple of small washouts but nothing major. TQ35 was fine. We went 55 to 75 on Saturday. Coming in to Beauce there were a few washouts but again passable. St Georges was aweful. Lots of washouts and real bumpy. A few real deep ones that we has to get creative to cross.... Once we got south of St Georges 75 was OK. All told not a bad 425 miles. Just have to be real carefull not to hit one of those holes going fast!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SudburySledder Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Hi Switchback nice to see the picture of our home Club House. St. Sabine (Club Mont Bonnet) is where we buy our passes and call our home base, Jane Mercier is great to deal with. Do you know how the condition is now??? Is it getting colder and is there any new snow?? The Sudbury Sledder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was groomed very well all the way to Pamphile. The 30 miles east of Sabine was just perfect. No probelms near Pamphile either. Heading up the 55 to TQ 35 was also very very good. To the south the 545 needed work as well as the 75 near Beauce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadRunner Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 After the rain on wednesday, they experienced some icing in the higher elevations around st sabine, st Magliore areas. I would suspect the groomers will shake them out over the next couple of days however, Trails were excellent as usual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dblacks Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Also had a little shortage of fuel, Those 600 sdi XP's still have a spot on them to carry the gas can for the thirstier yamaha thats too funny RR, I put that fuel can on my attak and only used it once for the yamaha, the rest of the time for the doo's I was running with, Now I need 2 spare cans for my ski doo, it is very thirsty, oil and gas. but it has tons of HP lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadRunner Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Dblack, How are you doing? Had a chance to get some riding in, I have noticed when riding the 800 XP's that they tend to be out of fuel before the yami, the 600sdi is a different story. Hope all is well Best regards RR PS Have you had a chance to run the trails in chaudierre this year, they are fantastic as usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davemod04 Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 THERE IS NO SNOW Could be, but usually due to elevation-thedford mines has snow when areas close, like st marie don't. Just wondering if there were other issues, like reluctant farmers or open waters. Too bad we coudn't ship the 20" of snow got in Ct up North where it would be appreciated!! later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
