Left this morning and headed on the lake and you end up coming into Parant the back way. Miracles never cease, the groomer in Parant was not parked like usual. It was actually out keeping the trails smooth. Trails in out of Parant were unbelievably good.. Of course it was like going back in time going by Hotel Central. All of the signs are gone, looks completely dilapidated but of course it’s open again and functioning and there were half a dozen trucks out front so I’m happy they’re making a go of it. As anyone trying to get reservations most anywhere on the wood runner trails its been a challenge. The folks from Ontario book everything up and it’s very hard to get lodging over here. 53 and 13 have plenty of places to stay, but they are always full. This year there’s a few reroutes on both those trails that engage a whole bunch of new outfitters. Tonight we were at Pourvoirie domaine Lounan. Wow, super nice so far. Plenty of snow in this area and groomers everywhere. They are directly between JB Scott and Lunics. Last year they had a one-way trail in and out this year you can come in from the east or the west, even though it doesn’t show up on any maps.
