Today, Mr GutZ and I rode 170 miles. All trails were very good. They had just been groomed or were being groomed. I rode No Hairs sled up to Spence this AM as it needs a tuneup. He was not feeling well. Mr GutZ picked me up and then we started our ride.

Yesterday Mr Gutz nohair and I rode 150 miles. Went to Mont Apicia for lunch. Back in the 60's the USA built a DEW Line station on top of Mont Apicia. To find out what the DEW Line was do a search. A local told me that there is a move on to make the trail run up to the top of Mont Apicia. and that on a clear day you can see Mont Valin from there.

Every time I read about these unbeleiveable accomplishments by the men + women of 'The Greatest Generation', I am in awe. I am not sure we could do it now because of our loss of manufacturing and engineering expertise.

How far we have fallen -

Very interesting read. Thanks Bill.

Just amazing what they did in such short time.

They could accomplish amazing things when you didn't have the department of environment criqueing every move. The beauracy in projects now cost incredible dollars and considerable time.

Yesterday Team GutZ, Team Biteharder and I rode 150 miles. Went to where WW II was won, Pickle Park Hill, look out on Bras Louis. lunch at Onatchiway and The Cave. Nohair's 600 ETec dropped a cylinder but he limped it back to the Delta. Trails were very very good.

Today I had an interview with a Public Relations crew who i9s working with Tourisme Saguenay at 8AM. Team Gutz and I left at 10AM, met Jack and Sandi at Relais du Lac for lunch. Team Gutz and I got back at 3PM. They wanted to load up as they are heading home in the AM. I put new rear shoes on my horse, hyfaxs with Team Gutz"s help.

Yesterday revct1, revct2 and myself did the "Tour du Lac St-Jean". Weather was great, trails were great as well. The 6 long lakers left with us and then headed up to Chibougamau.

This morning was maintenance day. Jack had to replace a headlight in Sandi's sled and I had to change the oil in mine. After a great lunch here at the Delta we rode 130 miles on freshly groomed trails.

I know he is a guide. I met him at Roquemont in January. Had a group and they were leaving for Lac Blanc. I did not get his name butI am not great with names. But I know he guides. Had a pretty big group. And he does the stand in the road and wave the group across one by one. He was telling one to stop but i guess they did not understand cause the one had a close call by the gas at Roquemont.
