RoadRunner Posted January 6, 2021 Report Share Posted January 6, 2021 Bob, really not sure, I was also wondering if they had a bridge over the river in New Richmond like this at one time as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being a New Brunswick boy I will give you some help on this one. Priceville footbridge crossing the Miramichi River.

Think it maybe the Le Massiff ski hill you see on the north side of the St Lawrence. You are correct sir!....I remember you liked that area a couple of years ago now I think. The first picture is the trail to La Pociatiere and that "pingo" would be seen from hwy 20. Incidentally if you are planning to stay in one of the motels there, make sure this trail is open as the geography does not lend itself well to low snow conditions and it is the only sled trail out of town. The middle picture is on a main trail south of St Jean Port Joli. Fuse6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recognized right away La Pocatiere, Green Trail right off TQ5 east heading to RDL. Remembered it well because it was so cold going through the open fields. That odd looking solitary mountain also gave it away. Edited January 7, 2021 by MrsGTRider PLAYHARD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t help but notice, judging by the yellow snow either there was rush on the facility’s or a few people need potty training.😂😂😂 quebec bob, Je me souviens, Blueblood and 3 others 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
