Does anyone know if there's a sled loading ramp at Forestel? Thinking of going solo next weekend and rather not pull the trailer if I can.

Thanks

Never seen a ramp there but lots of snow banks that will work just fine

He just said they got stopped by police near Louvicourt

Interesting, Would love more info on this interaction 

Surete du Quebec, I would think. 

Not sure if there is any local police besides SQ in Val d’or

Wow...that’s a bummer. No, haven’t had any problem.

Almost feel guilty..almost being the key.

300k plus today on perfect trails. Amos to Macamic-la sarre-palmarolle-amos

Zero morning traffic. Fast and tight all day. Definitely long John weather though. Gourmet trailside beefaroni and steamed dogs for lunch.

Tucked in at Atmosphere now. Val Dor Via Cadillac and environ tomorrow

Stay well

Talked to 2 guys today that parked @ Esso in Temiscamingue 2 weeks ago & did Val d'Or/Rouyn-Noranda loop. No problems-room service for breakfast/dinner @ Forestel in V.D./Alpin[Quality Inn] in R.-N. Curiously had notes on their windshields when returned to Temisk. from North Bay Health Unit Ont. that they should have stayed in Ontario!

No locals in VD Ice 

passesd a few SDQ cruisers parked in strange areas along the highway on the way in this time but didn’t bother us. Fueled at Ultramarine Louvicourt with one in the lot there as well and nothing.

awesome trailside dogs and pretty much sunny all day but frosty.

Double duty! The doggies can keep the breathboxes warm all afternoon when they come back around!

Thanks for the report! Definitely contributes to emotional wellness down here!

Well it’s a rap for this trip. 200km for the day. Not the greatest today but still decent for the most part.

local 307/309 ok but not great.

awesome trailside dogs and pretty much sunny all day but frosty.

cheers

Holy!! This crowd can go sideways on a topic easily. LOL. He should have just posted the hot dog in the bun.

It is a great idea, hot dogs, package of buns, some condiments, the burner and a pan really would not take much room in your bags.  It is an easy way to avoid possible exposure at lunch time in this time of covid.

OH HELL YES! 

How many gang-shaming cancel-culturing snowflakes can we outrage in one little ditty?!

Fat kids. Skinny kids. Kids who climb on rocks...

Tough kids. Sissy kids. Even kids with chicken pox...
