Be careful of those black bears JG, if they're hungry enough to try'n take down a moose, a little guy on his atv should be no trouble at all. Lol

First bottle of wine at the camp, ah ha! Lucky devil you beat me to it, my brother was at my cottage fishing two weeks ago, not me :(. It will be my first time this coming week end, gonna open up the place with a little outdoor fire and bottle of rouge.

It would be nice to see some pics of those windmills going up!

You said the weather still not nice there? Not good weather for this?

hi artsled !!!

for the windmills ,still too early..they are only at the begining..no big '' fan '' on the windmills yet!!

i ll do my best to take some later...i brought my 4w at my camp...so ,it should stay there til late october..unless of a bad luck!!..summer time ..don t ride in that area..stay around camp and lake!!

but when i go for logging road on my way up to camp ..i ll be able to see a few just before entering logging road ..later in june i guess.

big cedars in that area!!

Let's look at this new scenery on the positive side JG......would make for a good trail, easy grooming. Maybe take a little run through it on your atv to see how far it goes. Terrain looks easy enough to navigate through.

hi jg !!!

i understand what you mean.....but personnally i don t like that when waaaayy too wide..

bring more wind !!!

long straight west of ste marguerite ...not the same since road is wider...samething from last field in ste marguerite going toward that long hill...rock and roll there when windy and especially blowing snow...and especially at night......

that new clear cut after 90' corner...fun to see big drifts while grooming ..but could be painful for some sledders...

my 4w should be at the camp til late october....unless of a problem...

sorry ..only 1 pic left...ahahah

pic at the '' stump ''...causapscal river about 3 miles back !!
