scorpionbowl Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Just finished a 1400 mile, 5.5 day, Gaspe loop with NH-Moose. As Groomer says, trails were perfect and traffic was very low. Here's the track... Groomer, is this the entrance to your territory? Thanks for the 10" of powder on Thursday... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on, your a slacker!! You can't spend all your time on the couch. You spent all fall laying around the camp, now this. Maybe you could go help the boys groom the 587.
