skidoo420 Posted February 24, 2020 Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 There are no water crossing but you may want to get day pass for NB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluegrass Posted February 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 Yes I will have a pass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikerider Posted February 24, 2020 Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 Best route from RDL is RDL to St. Cyprien to Squatec to Biencourt to Moose Valley. Much, much nicer than taking 85 to NB and working your way NE to Moose Valley. mike RoadRunner, zeusand and viper2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastMark Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 Total round trip straight up and back ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikerider Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 125 miles one way. I am willing to bet the lodge is crazy busy Fri-Sun. Remember, cash only for gas. $2.00 gallon. We always top off in Squatec, coming and going. I can't remember if food is cash only or not. I have gone on a Tue and a Wed. Those days trails were perfect from Biencourt to Moose Valley. The last 50 miles or so is nothing less than epic. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcstar Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 $2.00 a gallon is cheap! Did you mean a liter?😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can really rack up the miles there. And just a reminder NB is one hour ahead. mikerider 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doo4adoo Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 We did a run this past weekend and came in from the 85. First part of their trails were nothing great but once you got in they were wide fast trails. We had lunch at Moose Valley and then took the trail toward L'Assension?(spelling) and Point a la Croix for the night. Would look to go back. Great scenery & trails.

mikerider Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 RDL to Moose Valley today with Farmer Old. Left at 8:00 back at 4:15. Skipped gas and skipped coffee break both ways. Just a leisurely lunch at MV and gassed up. Trails were really nice. I still recommend the left trail to MV over the right one when you get to the junction in NB that offers you the choice. Food was very good. 250 miles. I always tip the guy pumping gas. Wonder if others do also. He may be raking in more than all of us! mike zeusand, dooright, Byrd and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
