ST ZENON QUEBEC

[trailhed1]

Mt Laurier is nice area but lots of groups of French tourists (big groups riding right up the middle all dressed the same)
Very scary #*$&@
And a lot of stop signs and road crossing near town(more then other places for sure)

Le Glaciere
Great stop
Very secure
Do not hesitate to stay there they speak English too.
Has everything you need gas food bar nice rooms and secure parking for sleds.

I will also not patronize Le Cabanon F-them.
I would sleep in a snow cave first. Or warming hut.

remember Allain and Danny
Murdered in st Zenon

Farmers install some appear to prevent the passage of snowmobiles.

Some 150 farmers have gathered Tuesday morning at Saint-Prime, Lac-Saint-Jean to close a first snowmobile trail. They filed a redhorse hay at the entrance to a trail located on the ground of a producer.
Preventing passing snowmobilers and as well as cement blocks motoquads posters will be installed in the next few days.
The Federation des producteurs agricoles (UPA) in Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean prompts angry to complain to the Minister of agriculture, fisheries and food, Laurent Lessard.
Agricultural producers have also started to send advice to different clubs snowmobile region for them that they put an end to the agreements allowing passage on their land.
In the event, farmers have denounced changes to agricultural income (ASRA) of the financière agricole stabilization insurance program. They want that an agreement is reached before the General Congress of the UPA, November 30.
Opening of the Government
Monday at Cabano, Bas-Saint-Laurent region Prime Minister Jean Charest said that a request had been submitted to the Board of Directors of the financière agricole to review measures of farm income stabilization insurance crunch to take into account regional peculiarities.
"It is is heard today that Agriculture Minister Laurent Lessard, asked the financière agricole to work with you said Mr. Charest to review these measures and to ensure that they can be put in place, or they may be compatible with your need to support agriculture."

- Are the trails shaping up nicely there now?

 

[trailhed1]

Trails to open in the Mont Valin next next few days
About 20" of snow in most of the area there.
These are the only trails near opening.

Where I am no real snow here maybe an inch.
Need the rivers and lakes to freeze is still too early.

I got friends headed for the mont valin next week.

For me I will be patient for now. Not enough yet for me.
There's rocks under them there snow.
