lindasledgirl Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Was thinking of the same, when I read this post last week. Nice shots. Need more stories, ride reports... Thanks for sharing the highlights. Well there are 3000 pictures (not exaggerating) and my laptop is in a garbage bag! Just setting up the new one I bought on the way home. Jean-Guys is still not right. Seems he needs to spend another pile of money on his. So...we are getting there but I am still working on downloading all the pictures and sorting through them. I can tell you that the 'best' trails aren't trails (just like sledding there in the ZEC and you would be foolish to go there without a guide) and we had a ball! The moose right at the camp window was a big highlight for me. The night sky, the mountain views, the river crossings and waterfalls, animals and plants, the marsh and all the colours there, the Gaspesie National Park, the hikes, the trees and well...the photographer!! And sometimes fast logging roads, tough terrain and just seeing what these bikes are capable of. Follow it up with a course in "Red Wine" (which I have tried maybe 3 times in my life prior to the Gaspesie), living with no running water, no hair blower, tv, computer, phone, printer or internet. And for JG....well, he can speak for himself...but a woman for 2 weeks in the camp and all her truck load (and i mean loaded to the rafters!), who talks all the time, has opinions about everything and doesn't drink.....well lets just say he passed with flying colours! Amazing! To say the least! Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lindasledgirl Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 There was only one occassion where Jean-Guy drove right past a moose. I had no choice but to take her picture all by myself haha!! I should tell you however that I was screaming so loud for Jean-Guy, he heard me off in the distance, over his 4 wheeler motor and did manage to come back in time to see her run off. The moose was big, I was alone, she looked at me in horror when I was screaming and I don't have a camera like his...just a little point and shoot. But hey...it worked. Here she is!
