  1. In Quebec right now doing the Cote Nord. This morning stopped into the Ski Doo dealer in Baie Comeau. There was 137 new sleds on site still in the crate. No idea how many the dealer would sell in a normal but that is a crazy amount of sleds to carry over

    Weather

    Here’s some more pics from the 595N in the Gaspe. These would be south of the pic 1049 posted, once you get into the Chic Chocs. Glad our Gaspe trip isn’t until mid February, very little snow there presently.
  3. Was surprised to see it green there. That is hilly rugged country, not level rail beds.
  4. Hit the Snowflake icon in top right corner. Then can select Trail Conditions to see what’s open. Also can select Grooming Map. Once they get grooming the map is updated at 6:00 AM and 1:00 PM daily.
  5. If you’re on FB go to the Quebec Rider group. There is a good recent post there explaining how to do it. There is two different ways, the one they charge you a $23.00 service charge so you net $12.00. The other method you will get something like $37.00 back.
  6. Yes we are still going. The map PLC posted is our reroute. Likely turn 5 day trip into 6 day. From what l’ve read there is no chance it will open anytime this winter. That trail is very remote, the number of volunteers that live in that 100 km stretch would be very limited. Haven’t seen any pictures of the two bridges that have issues. Riding through there don’t recall any bridge of any significance. It’s mountainous, hills and valleys so lm sure there is many small creeks and streams with small bridges you really don’t notice because the area normally gets so much snow. There still will be 1,500-1,800 km of beautiful riding to enjoy.
  7. We’ve done a Gaspe/NB trip the last two winters. Haven’t stayed at the railcars but they do look cool. This year staying in Florenceville at the Amsterdam Inn. Railcars not practical for guys trip needing enough beds. Hopefully Slo-mo comes back.His scouting missions and reports were a great resource to learn about places a lot of us have never been.
  8. Anyone planning a Gaspe trip this winter it was announced yesterday that the interior trail that runs through the Chic Choc mountains between LaCache and Murdochville will be closed all winter due to some bridges that are unsafe. Unfortunate as it is one of the most scenic trails. Pink trail is the closed one. The green dot is LaCache.

    Permits

    Last year we paid $40 for one day pass, Can’t remember if it was $70 or $80 for 2 day pass in NB l don’t mind permit fees if the grooming is top notch majority of the time. Quebec permit is getting expensive but still good value if you have the time to get some decent miles on.
  10. Has it been discussed if there will be any way the OFSC mad could be available in a file format that would be downloadable to Garmin units? lf they don’t have or develop something that is downloadable to a Garmin OFSC will be alienating many permit holders.
  11. OFSC No Trak Maps No Grooming Map No Interactive Map available in September and October to plan trips Quebec 👍Trak Maps 👍Grooming Map 👍Interactive Map Available
  12. Stoney, if we are doing the whole Gaspe or have someone in the group that hasn’t done it this is the route would take assuming weather is good for the five day ride. Covers off all the good interior trails: 1. Chic Choc trail, LaCache to Murdochville 2. 595 N and S 3. 587 South 4. 597 south (between Chandler and Murdochville, is a piston alley run if you enjoy that. Includes Perce Rock , which once you seen it once not priority for me on future trips. The south shore, orange on the BonVoyage Map you posted is a waste of time. Relatively flat and not much to see. Don’t want to miss the north shore. Ride from Cap Chat to Mont St Pierre is a must do.
