Thanks Iceman.

 

Good morning snowmobilers .. Last hour, please take note that there is no more GASOLINE and TOILET service at Mill 54 between Dore and Chibougamau (North 93 trail) because of COVID We have no control and are very sorry for this situation. thank you and be careful!

 

This means carrying gas is a must for this section of trail. Hopefully it will open next season but could be a sad look at the future.

Yup this really sucks and that’s a long run with no place to stop to warm up or anything in between. Damn shame.....

Exactly 

you can carry the gas and make it but not having it sucks. Will probably effect grooming of this trail as well. Less traffic they will maintain it accordingly. 

Hopefully next year we will be more lucky.

Wow no GAS makes this leg not rideable.   Far worse bad news....... we even have to bring our own toilet paper.

Methane gas powered sleds with on board bioreactors might be the solution.

That's like 2 Apex tanks if it's less than yummy trail conditions. 

Dang, I go look up what a gallon of gas weighs, and get an interesting view of the new math?.. h12 + 16 = 44?

Bungee cord a couple of windshield washer jugs full of gas to your running boards and Pour them in after 30 miles, you're good

I hope your experience with them is better than my brother’s. Years ago he put gas in a couple of those and brought them along, probably 45 minutes into the trip both had developed cracks were leaking from being jostled around.

We've done this a bunch of times  , just pour it in as soon as it fits in the tank

Just need to get a longer sled😀, and 3 cans!
 

On a good trail condition day,   we have this expedition dialed in to go from Ladore to Chibougamo and back without a fuel stop LOL.  Just wish we could get north of the border to do that this year!

Wanna do the extra miles you need the extra gas. Where there’s a way there’s a will.
