smclelan Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 (edited) Just in case anyone is wondering if there is still snow, we drove to Ste Margarite to see.

We left there and headed toward Point a la Croix and saw the Coast Gaurd Hovercraft Thanks again Jean Guy for a great weekend Edited April 21, 2014 by smclelan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smclelan Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 JG's winter friends may be gone for 8mths, my snowshoe trip is considered a spring trip. JG has become the "Go To Guy" of the Gaspesie!! He has visitors in all 4 seasons. I have been lucky enough to be there in all seasons, summer is incredible and the fall when the leaves are changing can be breath taking.
