iceman Posted December 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 Sorry Mikerider you are not a winner, feel free to guess again another date not taken. The VTT groomer did groom the sand yesterday but that don't count. It's amazing to me how many times they groom the sand all year. They must have alot of money in their budget for VTT grooming. Trail TQ 3 today looking east and west. (Not that it matters much) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you look back at post 3 it wasn't specified snow groomer, I think you could be a winner after all. Maybe Iceman will let you be the first sled to follow the VTT groomer as a prize!! We have more snow in Nova Scotia then there is in that picture!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikerider Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 Sure looks like the groomer made its first pass! mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman Posted December 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 Sure looks like the groomer made its first pass! mike Not the first pass, that groomer passes 3x per month for the VTT. Apples and Oranges. The sled club groomers are sitting idle, not going nowhere soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikerider Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 That's okay, I'll still buy you a beer next time you come thru Riviere du Loup. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
800steve Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 Time to join the VTT club by Iceman, looks like they do a great job. Winter saddlebag trips on 4 wheelers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikerider Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 Actually, I never realized they groom the ATV trails during the non snow season. Attorney Smclelan will be representing me in the law suit over the grooming contest. I picked Dec. 18th and grooming pics were posted. If the rest of you want to make this a class action suit, and we win, it will be free beer at Iceman's all winter!!! mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLAYHARD Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 (edited) So it begins, with a few yellow dots in Chapais & Jonquiere: http://www.sledmagazine.com/actions/showConditionsSentier?request_locale=enrequest_locale=en Regarding contesting the date pool, I'm pretty sure the Icy-officiant has a strict no-whining clause in the fine-print, and even if there was a successful mutiny on the bounty it's up to said Icy-officiant to designate the booty, so unless you want some hairballs from the Ice Station kitty cats it's probably best to just pick a new date. Just sayin'. Edited December 19, 2015 by PLAYHARD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceman Posted December 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Sorry actionjack, no SNOWMOBILE club groomer action in sight. Feel free to pick another date if you wish.(one not already spoken for please) It is cold though that is encouraging and a few flurries but nothing to get all hot and bothered about.

towing Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 (edited) Well, I had to admit my optimistic hopes were wrongs... was hoping to do my first ride in my playground in these days and we are unfortunately far from there: no snow at all and the warmest temperatures ever recorded in December up to date Radio-Canada made a tv report on the 15 December and interviewed Real Massé at his pourvoirie. This is in french but the images show well the actual situation... In short, Real said that 30 years ago when he arrived there, they had snow on the 15 November and now they had hard time to have for Christmas holidays. This year, the reservations he had have near all cancelled, it's sure hard on the business. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Lp3-ktGR2qg"frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> I had to agree with him and even when the snow arrive on time, it's often a thaw that mess up the picture for Christmas holidays like last year. Well, at least there are some area that are starting to open to the east fo the province, let's hope the next days won't be as bad as they forecast and the season will really start soon Alain Edited December 20, 2015 by towing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 1 Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 This is going to be the warmest ever, I saw a Jan - March prediction that is to depressing to post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm often too much of an optimist. Hope and pray there will snow before my first planned trip. Hey 10 years ago I found QC riding because the only place with snow for our dates was LSJ and beyond.
