Candubrain Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Never got further west than Moonbeam. Some bare spots but minimal. Around Remi Lake was great and minimal traffic. In fact all the branch trails were good, it was mainly the A trail that had the bare areas. Make sure you have scratchers for the morning, saw one blown up 850 Doo. I kept my scratchers down the entire time, 1,100+kms. Did manage to hook one while crossing a rail track and pulled it straight. brian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m in hearst, the loops around hearst are in good condition and it’s snowing up here right now. Yesterday was warm so they took a hit conditions wise, roads are toast and into the hotels is getting thin. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proxrider Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Thanks Nunz. I'm guessing A Trail will see alot of traffic again this weekend but a little snow and some colder weather should help out. Trying to decide on a trip up mid week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottyr Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Its pretty cold up there until mid next week. I bet the groomers are out for one last run before the temps are too warm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottyr Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 I see Ville Marie has closed their trails. I generally leave my truck in VM and head towards VD from there. I think some buddies of mine are heading to VD tomorrow. I already told them not to even ask me to go ask I will just get mad because I cant go.

No idea what happened, just from what I've seen on 705 sleds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PISTON LAKE CRUISER Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 From the PBR F/B page this is what I think happened, there was a hill that would be able to pick your skis up if you went fast enough, with a gnarly divot at the bottom. So I think he picked his skis up and hit the divot then sent him into the trees, sled was mangled. Like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nunz Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 We just got back from 3 days of riding in the Hearst area, Trails coming into Hearst are getting a little beat up but holding up, The loops around Hearst are amazing condition and looks like there is quite a bit of snow in the forecast coming this week. We rode to Hornepayne on Saturday and it was not too bad but very icy, scratchers are a must as they hadnt gotten the fresh snow. We never went east of Mattice so can't comment on the conditions out that way. Hope this helps 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get up and ride! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
