      Ski touring chic chocs

      I am planning a trip to the chic chocs for one week this christmas break (roughly from December 27th to January 4th).  At the moment I plan to stay at the chic chac and hire one of their guides to show me around although  I would prefer to go with a fellow touring partner.  If anyone is planning a similar trip and would like a friendly touring partner you can PM me and hopefully we can work something out! (I am a 26 y/o student studying in Ottawa.  I spent a few seasons out west and gained knowledge and experience touring in the national parks.  Hoping to find some eastern pow this winter!)

      cheers

      Hi: I am in Ottawa and was thinking of a Chic  Chocs trip this year.  I have touring experience in Western Canada and in Europe.  Your timing may not work, but if you are looking for a partner during the season, drop me a note.

      Hey I am also from ottawa

      i am pretty keen on checking out the chic chocs this winter

      it might be a little early for me to confirm anything quite yet but I am always looking for partners to go bc skiing. I started in BC and now go pretty regularly to the dacks and whites. 

      I have the guide book for the chic chocs but I am not super keen on getting a guide

      also if either are interested in going to ski in the dacks I know the area well, send me a line jbvdb493@hotmail.com

      Hey! 

      I am in Montreal and am looking for BC partners. I'm looking to ski all the areas you guys have talked about. Feel free to drop me a line if you have anything planned or want to chat!

      Cheers,

      Max

      Hi

      Was in the Chic Chocs last winter and with the dollar sitting where it is I'm heading back again. Looking at hanging out in the Eastern Townships for a week before driving out to Cap Chat or Mont Edouard for 5 or 6 nights. Dates are tentative but Feb.19-26 in the Townships and 26-March 2, driving from Sarnia.

      Hi,

      I am staying in Quebec City for two months only. At the end of my stay I want to go to chic chocs, preferably between 10 and 14 december. I would be glad to join anyone. I am planning to rent a car and drive there from Quebec City. Is it possible to get enough snow by then?
