Mrs Ice paddle board Gaspe/New Brunswick 2025 What a wonderful journey that is coming to an end. For the second year in a row, I started my vacation in Gaspésie. I left on June 24, sleeping in my car and paddling almost every day. The river water here is crystal clear and cool! There are lots of rapids in all the rivers, one of the main reasons people come here. Many people join in and leave as they please, and that's pure happiness. It's all about simplicity and spontaneity! Here is my itinerary for the last few days, accompanied by a jumble of photos and videos! June 24: Drive to Campbellton, NB. June 25: Descended a small section of the Kegwick River, beautiful, wild, clear water, brown bottom, whitewater (16 km). June 26: paddled down the little Cascapédia River, 20 km in the morning, where my partner put his fin on backwards and forgot his paddle at the bottom of the river in his car! 😂 The water is crystal clear, with several rapids and a threshold that got the better of me this year! June 27: departure for my first real SUP camping trip with my big bag and everything on the Bonaventure River. Thanks to Michael for coming to take us to Big West. 37 km to go to reach our campsite. R2-R1 and whitewater! It's not the same riding with a big camping bag, but I adjusted quickly—I had no choice! 😄 Thanks to Sylvain Bélanger for introducing me to it! June 28: We packed up our camp to meet Cindy at the St. Alphonse footbridge. We have 3.5 km to go. The meeting was at 10 a.m. With 22 km to go to get to the car, we had a strong headwind, gusting to 45 km/h after lunch until the end! 😩 No choice! Then we meet up with the rest of the gang! June 29: It's raining, so we find something else to do. We had breakfast at Tim Hortons and chatted for a while.. After a few stops, we hit the road to join the others in St-Florence. June 30: Descent of the Causapscale and Matapédia! It started off steep, with some doubts, good rapids, lots of rocks, but it was a great discovery! 32.2 km on this magnificent day! July 1: descent of the Nouvelle River, 27 km. A fairly technical river due to log jams here and there. You really have to be careful and sometimes take the flat route (less water or less current) to stay safe! We had our first mishap with a fisherman who kicked someone's board and caused them to fall into the water in the rapids. Pretty normal, the river belongs to everyone! You have to understand that in Gaspésie, it's salmon fishing country! We have to preserve good relations. When we approach a fisherman, we blow our whistle and ask him which side of the river he wants us to pass on! It's always worked well, except today! 🙈 So tomorrow, my little last one, which I repeat because it's magnificent, the little Cascapédia! Then I'll go home with a full heart, an empty head, and a charmed spirit! Lots of laughter too!! 🤣🤣

Update: Official Statement – Airmedic – Montreal, June 25 – 10:00 p.m. (EDT) It is with great sadness that we received the news today from the Sûreté du Québec confirming that the two crew members who were still missing, as well as the patient, were found in Lake Watshishou by divers deployed to the site. The helicopter was also found, bringing the search operations to a close. This confirmation has stirred up emotions among our teams. A moment of reflection is beginning for the entire Airmedic family. We will take the time to pay tribute to them and honor their commitment. They lost their lives while trying to save others—an act that embodies their passion, their vision, and the meaning they gave to their profession. Additional details will be released in the coming days. Our thoughts are with the families, loved ones, and colleagues affected by this loss, as well as the family of our patient, to whom we extend our deepest condolences. The memory of all those who have passed away will remain with our organization. In their memory, we continue to support each other with the same solidarity that unites us. The formal identification of the victims will be communicated by the Coroner's Office, in accordance with current procedures and with the consent of the families.

AirMedic helicopter crash near Natashquan: four people unaccounted for NEWS ACCIDENTS Saturday June 21, 2025 12:43 PM Natashquan, June 21, 2025 - A vast rescue operation has been underway since 10:30 pm Friday evening in the Natashquan region, on the North Shore, following the crash of a helicopter. The aircraft, an AirMedic helicopter, has been officially identified by the company. According to the AirMedic spokeswoman, five people were on board: four crew members and one passenger. Air-Medic was providing medical transport. The Sûreté du Québec confirmed that only one person managed to extricate himself from the aircraft and go for help, thus triggering the alert. The other four people are still missing. The search for the aircraft has not yet been successful. Information remains fragmentary, but it is possible that the helicopter crashed into a body of water, possibly a lake or river. Since then, a major search operation has been deployed on the ground. Police, firefighters, paramedics, specialized search teams and helicopters have all been mobilized. The Canadian Armed Forces are also actively involved in locating the aircraft. A command post has been set up to coordinate operations. The precise location of the crash has not yet been identified, and the aircraft remains unaccounted for for the time being.

Baie trinité A tourist accommodation (chalets) and restaurant project is currently under development in Baie-Trinité, Manicouagan. It includes five rental cottages, scheduled to open this fall. Karine Davignon, co-owner of Les Portes du Golfe, fell under the spell of Baie-Trinité with her husband during a trip to the Côte-Nord region. Since acquiring the church in 2022 to transform it into a performance venue, the couple have been multiplying their initiatives in the village. It's like being in the South, but on the North Shore. A quote from Karine Davignon, co-owner of Les Portes du Golfe These passionate collectors of antiques and heritage buildings already own a canteen and a street food truck. They have recently acquired the restaurant opposite the church and are renovating it. It is due to open in January. From bed to plate! The rental cottage project will ensure the continuity of our project," explains Ms. Davignon. The company will be able to offer a complete tourism package including accommodation, catering and cultural activities. Being able to offer a service that's right on the seafront is also a big draw for people. There are very few places where this is possible," explains Karine Davignon. She adds that this offer in Baie-Trinité, located between Baie-Comeau and Sept-Îles, will satisfy both worker and tourist demand.There are many challenges involved in launching a tourist, food and cultural activity in a village like Baie-Trinité. The entrepreneur points to permit applications, which mean additional delays, and the difficulty of finding certain trades in a remote region. The project, originally scheduled to get underway on June 24, has been delayed by logistical issues related to the delivery of cottages arriving on the ferry.

I am thinking they will plow the road from KM31 down the TQ93 for access year round to cottages in question
