Captain! 

This kind of TBK pic is a terrific reminder of what you and other caretakers deal with SO WE DON'T HAVE TO! 

God bless the boon-dockers!  But I LOVE me some GT's!  (Grooooooomed trails!)

Merci!

You keep the snow, just send me that one pile of wood!!

Hopefully this little dump will get things started for the winter in the Gaspesie.  

Just looked at your weather. Don't know if you are scheduled to go out grooming tonight, but conditions would be perfect for it. Fresh snow, then turning very cold. Hopefully the trails get a few hours to stiffen up with no traffic. It would be ideal.

Do you think there is enough to hook up my trailer and start driving north ? 😀

 

hi pipeman !!!

well , thats a 100.00$$$ question !!!....if i look at my  trails....like in town, where its narrow and lots of trees......for sure need more ....if you ride large roads...should be ok ...

fields should nt be too bad...hard to tell ...

windmills area where the trail is along the road...need more snow for sure ...

a guy from rdl wrote on the french forum...6-7  '' there !!!

maybe wait for a few reports...you ll have a better idea...rimouski begin grooming tomorrow ..

getting colder ....still snowing ...windy a bit
