That is 147 mile run, gas to gas on FCMQ map. Is there any gas stop that is not shown?

No , you need to carry enough with you.

What about Pourvoirie de La Dore? They have gas BUT, I'm not sure where the trail into their place leaves trail 93 when coming from the north? That could make a big difference on miles traveled to get there. Does anyone know how to get in their?

The trail into them is just short of 8 miles off the 93 . Makes the distance to gas about a 130 miles. So i guess that helps a little

Here's a picture of the sign on 93 .. Picture of the Pourvoirie

great is this sigh north or east of their location/ are you coming in off of 93 from the north or east

I'm not sure where the sign is located but to get to their facility when going south on 93 and it turns a hard left to go to La Dore, don't turn left, go straight thru, the trail goes to their place. Pretty sure I read on here that they only have regular gas and by the map it is further than if you went into La Dore village.

Does not sound correct

You are confusing pourvoirie La Dore with Restaurant du Chef I think.

Coming south from Chibougamau to La Dore the Pouvoirie La Dore is a Right off of TQ93 onto their private trail. If going north from La Dore its a left off TQ93

Someone else will be able to tell you exact distances each side.

I am not confusing Pourvoirie de La Dore with anything.

I'm just trying to understand if the entrance to Pourvoire de La Dore is taking a right about 120 miles from the Marinia Chibougamau and heading south off of 93

OR

going another 20 miles and taking a right heading east off of 93 to get there.

Maybe I'm not clear enough but damn I still don't know the simple answer.

It's north west , as said..Riding south on 93 its a right turn off 93 (in blue) onto the (pink trail) is the access trail to Pourvoirie La Dore .

You can go back out the way you came in, or head out south towards La Dore'.

You are correct. I did not zoom in far enough on the Quebec online map. Sorry about that.

Thank you guys I think I have the info I wanted now. Planning a 2300 mile trip for 6 guys and do not want to put them out of gas anywhere. Appreciate your help!

That is a handsome trip. How many days are you riding?

10 day ride starting in St Raymond, to Ontario boarder by a southern route, up to Matagami, over to Chibougamau then back to St Raymond. We have an alternate route returning thru Clovia and Parent from Matagami if the cold is extreme or a major snow dump makes that section thru Chibougamau to dangerous.

Sounds like an excellent loop. Wish you best of luck and freshly groomed trails.

Hi Floridarider. You don't mention if anyone of the 6 are carrying extra gas. Not everyone may need to carry extra gas because you have luggage but on a trip of that length, it would be wise to have at least one or two sleds carrying extra gas just in case. That way, at least someone can continue on for assistance if need be.

Enjoy the ride and be safe.

Yes, we will have extra gas and good equipment, this group has (not always all 6) been enjoying our 10 day Quebec ride for 10 years now. Except for Covid when we did Maine for 2 years. Maine is nice but we love Quebec, its snow and the people.. Some of us have over 30,000 miles of riding in Quebec. Have not done "THE WHITE TRAIL" or Chibougamau so we hope to get Chibougamau off the list, but I'm thinking I'm too old for The White Trail.

Jack & Sandi we appreciate you checking with us on the gas it's so important. Thank you

Here's a picture from today 1/28 coming from the north.
