Mary lake opened up at the south end today. Still covered in the middle towards crown island. If the wind was stronger today it likely would have finished it. Hopefully the wind stays light and doesnt start pushing ice sheets into docks/boathouses. Clearwater lk still has a good covering but getting darker.

I think it depends on the sled. I personally wouldnt own an 850 without warranty. So its a tough resale. 600's i would buy/own without warranty, same with a 4 stroke. My 17 cat was a discounted left over with 1 year warranty and my 20 skidoo was a left over msrp with 2 years warranty. No trouble reselling them without warranty. Right now i'd be lucky to get $9k for my 23. Yikes. Market reactions will depend on if there's snow on the ground come next season too. Im waiting it out till the fall to make a move on a leftover 24.

Blue book value on used sleds dropped huge in last 4 months. The numbers on clean 24' trades is crazy!

Im at 2350kms with 300 or so opening trails around here. 5 days total riding trails in quebec. Almost 9000km on the 600r now.
-
I havent used my ofsc pass once this year. Im ok with that. What i've noticed quebec has going for it is the majority of trails themselves are used year around and thus are maintained year round. Lots and lots of forest access roads that are easy to groom and open early. They groom in the winter like a municipal roads department clears snow. Perhaps the OFSC, tourism Ontario, MTO and the MNR could look into what we already have in place and not used currently by the natural resource sector. We've got the goods, we're just not using it and realizing the recreation tourism $$ potential. My 2 cents.

I seen they're offering 3 years warranty now on spring order 25' Doo's and lynx's.

Amos back to temis today. Only one pic from lunch at rapid 7. The 309 and north of there was excellent. Still good enough on the rail line in temis. Getting tough in between but some really good mixed in there too. Anyone ever tried/found/know of good parking around la force to saddle bag from?
-
It was decent leaving temis, ville marie to la tulipe was thin but rideable, la tulip was sweet half way to la force was icey on lower route 63 and up. La force up 309 was minty to the shelter the whole length. Stopped for lunch at rapid 7. Malartic to amos on 83, 307, 93 was choppy but met the groomer just south of town. 400 clicks. Excellent day🫠

Thank you. Thats not what i was hoping to hear but expected. Leaving from Temiscaming in the morning, Amos bound. Did you have scratchers down?

-
So im assuming temiscaming, ville marie took a beating today with that warmth and sun? Amos should be ok its just getting there.

We use these for carrying oil. Never a drop spilt. 2 fit inside a freezer bag. Holds a litre i think.

Im sold on the 31ltr combo bag. It doesnt get in the way at all, keeps weight off the back and I could easily hold a gallon of oil and clothes for a week in it.
