For the Trail up the St Maurice River
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Following an in-depth analysis and consultations with the FCMQ, the Mattawin Snowmobile Club has made the difficult but 𝐝𝐞́𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 decision to stop maintaining the Saint-Maurice River trail.
This decision is based on considerations of 𝐬𝐞́𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞́ 𝐞𝐭 𝐝𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐚𝐛 𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐞́ 𝐜𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐥𝐞 that cannot be compromised. 𝐋𝐚 𝐬𝐞́𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞́ 𝐝𝐞𝐬 𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐚𝐥𝐞 𝐩𝐫 𝐢𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞́.
Weather conditions in recent years have become too unstable and unpredictable, with significant variations within a single week, making it impossible to maintain a level of absolute safety for snowmobilers.
We also asked neighboring clubs take over maintenance of this trail. After analysis, none of them agreed to assume this level of risk, undoubtedly for the same reasons of safety and liability, in a constantly changing climate.
