Just finished a wonderful supper at a friends` chalet in front of Lac St. Ferdinand. 4 snowmobiles are loaded up in the trailer, ready for an early morning departure to the town of Shawinigan, 2 hours away. Then, it`s one week of trail riding going through Lac St. Jean, Chibougamou, Lebel sur Quevillon, Senneterre etc etc....I am so stoked.

Anyway, I just wanted to wish you fellow polkies a great week and I`ll see you back again with some interestig stories and a few photos.

Later,

Joe

    Depature from a friends' place in St. Tite (yeah I know, funny name). One Ski-Doo, 2 Yamaha, and one Polaris

    Taking a break in the woods

    The Polaris blows his engine on a long stretch of former railroad track. Ah those touchy 2-stroke engines. The rest of us had 4-strokes.

    Overlooking a bridge somewhere past the town of Chapais.

    Small cabins are found here and there on the trail for a rest stop. This one had an outhouse for the ladies I presume...we normally piss in the woods.

    Hotel restaurant in the town of Val D'or

    sk7.jpg


    Motel in the town of Parent. The trail between Clova and Parent wasn't groomed. We met a few other snowmobilers and took the road to Parent instead. The 105 km trip was done at speeds between 120 and 150 kph. My machine topped out at 170 kph.

    3 trails to choose from. We took the 73 south

    Not sure what town this was, but it sure was pretty. A group of tourists were coming up the hill at that moment.
