Gowganda Lake Camp Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Anybody know whats going on with the A trail north out of Elk Lake and the a106c. Hi Lep.. How are you doing? That is correct about waiting for a bridge install. The bridge is now finished and I beleive the plan is to groom it tomorrow. This latest snow sure helps as part of the trail had to be plowed for the install equipment. The C106a is ready from the A trail to Cambell lake but it will not connect to the C trail again this year. We are going to connect to it from the A107c to make a loop but Timmins is not coming down last I heard as they are assuming grooming hours from another club that closed. You should see the A trail open in a few days. As soon as it gets groomed and signed. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gowganda Lake Camp Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Thanks for the update. Hoping march will hold up this year for a ride. Which club folded? Hello Viper 700 It would be nice.. The last few years winter consists mainly of Feb. , march break comes and so does spring winds. I cannot remember who it was but timmins was picking up some of their grooming. I think it is Foleyet but don't quote me on that. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gowganda Lake Camp Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Anybody know whats going on with the A trail north out of Elk Lake and the a106c. "A" trail is still going to be a few more days. There were some problems on Friday when the groomer out of Matachewan was opening that trail for the first time and they did not finish it. Most of the problem is fixed and they should be out again soon. If anyone is riding early this week you will want to adjust your route to avoid that section for a few more days.

14 snow Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Thanks Ron. How's it looking around you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowganda Lake Camp Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 It's getting there. Once the grooming gets caught up we have some major brushing to get done this week. The club has purchased a new brusher that is going to make a major difference as soon as we can get it out on the trail . L136 is started (maybe by next weekend), Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultrafrozen Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 ... The club has purchased a new brusher that is going to make a major difference as soon as we can get it out on the trail ... Did you purchase a Nor-Arc Brusher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowganda Lake Camp Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Did you purchase a Nor-Arc Brusher? Yes... Dennis from Club Echo has been promoting this for years and it makes and amazing difference. We can mow the ground but when you mow the sides too it opens the trail up huge.

Yamalad Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 According to Luc, the Folliett club folded. Chapleau is doing the trail now right to Folliett from the West and Timmons now from the East. Anyone know if the Lodge, I believe it was called Moosland just east of Folliett is still operating. The owner, Dale was the President of their snowmobile club a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AC+YA Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Mooseland on the Hwy and Singel Lake which is about 15 miles East of Foleyet has been closed in the winter for a number of years. There is a place in town that you could stay and the gas station and resturant are still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWIGHT RX Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I see A is red now north of L162,anybody know whats up? Came down from Cochrane Tuesday. There was a major washout approximately 18km south of Kenogami. Met a rider who had turned around and was detouring through Kirkland Lake. He warned us of the problem, washout at the bottom of a steep hill with open water. We detoured via A110Q and the A108 through Kirkland lake. The gas station at Kenogami said that the clubs were aware and making plans to fix the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
