Glad you are having a good time teasing us that are stuck with the green grass sunshine and daffodils!! Haha!! Linda Grass not so green yet in MTL, still a little nippy for daffadils or tulips too. If your daffodils have popped up i'd love to see them. JG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EXT Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 few more !! linda ,pic 10,where we talked with the 2 guys from maine !!we went riding up the ''pic ''. last pic, looking west,almost on top of the looooooong hill,few miles east of ste marguerite !! jean-guy Jean-Guy I see my carbide tracks in the last 2 pictures of this post.March 22 12 there was a bit more snow.( not much though) LOL!! We ran into this road as well as a few others that had been plowed that day. At the end of the dirt road it meets a sand sealed road.I missed where the trail went down over a field to the right. At the end of the dirt road it "looked like" the trail went right across and continued down along the left side of the road. I launched up and over the snow bank into 4 feet of unpacked quicksand snow. 30 min later we got dug out and found the trail again. Should have had our 4 wheelers I guess LOL. We will be back to this gorgeous area next year when the snow returns and the trail signs are still up LOL!!! Thanks for the helpful posts about the area.Too bad the Sledding season was cut short by the early warm weather. EXT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
