nyskidooerinnewhampshire 220 Report post Posted February 26, 2019 WOW ! Great news. Great honor. Congratulations Bill. I for one can in part thank Bill on behalf of myself & family members for the initial introduction to the Saguenay region / Hotel Delta. After I wrote to Bill cold turkey he promptly replied and with great confidence he encouraged me to make the journey to paradise. The rest is history. Thank you Bill.

Russ and Pam Hi Russ and Pam don't hold me to this but i was led to believe it's going to be the new rerouted 383 from the dam to 368 that's been closed for the last 2 years. Ok found out a bit more it's the 368 from junction of the 23 right up to the 383 about 48k section.... we love that trail it's one of Pat's favourite...

vt_bluyamaha54 112 Report post Posted February 27, 2019 Congratulations Bill! There isn't anyone I know in snowmobiling who has given so selflessly of themselves, and their time to promote and share the Saguenay region with others. From helping with points of interest to finding a local vendor to provide needed parts or equipment to allow a trip to continue, you have always stepped in. Happy trails my friend! 1 182ray reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
