We are getting hammered ..But they are calling for rain on friday pretty much all over Quebec 20 + mils. But not the mountainforecast for above 1000 feet at the sled den. ( gaspesie ).SNOW...So as far as the trails all over Quebec..not sure what will happen with the rain.I shall post some of my friends rides when they go..this way you ontarioains can see what its like here in the land of snow...lol..jack

I would watch the weather close..Theweatherchanel.com The gaspesie area is opening all over here is a pic from the groomer from just before amqui....on the 14 dec.

Yes this is good news! I see Alain already rode last weekend in the st zenon area! Looks very good and with next snow fall looks amazing. Here at home in ottawa were also looking at good snow fall amounts! Doing the snow dance!

So we didnt get the hudge dump like the rest of Quebec.We got 10cm sealevel and 15cm up high.BUT..The storm that is going by will have a rap around and we at sealevel will get 20cm and above 3000 feet its 35cm..The mountforecast is usually on.The snow is in the eastern point of gaspesie..Looks like the mountains will be ready for the long tracks in 1 or 2 more storms.Why,because they cut in the winter and leave 2 foot stumps.Need 4 foot base to not hit those.The trails are still thin in the south be careful.Shall post after the storm.. jack

We got pounded..The snow is 2-3 feet at sealevel and is crazy deep in the mountains..We still need some in the cuts...But its ammazzing..One pic is my sled where you only see the seat and handlebar.One of my son and I cutting tracks..One where I stood off my sled on the road..You know the days you ride and your sled is like a boat..you crawl to get to it,and when you try to get on its hard to get your foot up that high,.Now thats a powder day.. jack
