SLEDSENSE 2006 Season 2 Episode 1
Saguenay, Quebec #14 Adventure SLEDSENSE
visits the Saguenay/Lac St Jean region of Quebec, Canada. Located about 3 hours drive north of Quebec City, this region boasts a trail system whose combined length roughly equals the distance between Chicago and LA! With snow 6 months a year, this place is outstanding and the sledding was epic. We also hit the lake for a taste of the local ice-fishing and finished off with another activity which is sure to become a tradition: Kevin falling flat on his face during a snowshoe race!

EASTERN TOWNSHIPS, QUEBEC #15
SLEDSENSE visits the Eastern Townships of Quebec, Canada. As we’ve learned traveling this great globe, nature has it’s own agenda, which isn’t always the same as ours. Due to lack of snow and poor weather the trails were closed. So we headed to a local ski hill, where it proceeded to rain. A stop at the J. Armand Bombardier Museum, during a power outage set the scene for an intimate “candle lit” tour. The following day the temperature dropped to minus thirty as we attended the prestigious
Ski-Doo race, the Grand Prix de Val Court. Admittedly we froze, but it was well worth it, as we got to meet Blair Morgan, Mike Island, the legendary Jacques Villeneuve, and others at this great event. So although our resolve was tried and tested, we still came away with another amazing winter adventure.

STUMP LODGE, NEWFOUNDLAND #16

SLEDSENSE visits the east coast of Canada, where we lay down some tracks on the island they call “The Rock”; Newfoundland. We are shown around by the Newfoundland & Labrador Snowmobile Federation, and we even get to be part of the official naming ceremony of a new sleddin’ lodge, called “Stump Lodge”. Boasting endless trails and backcountry terrain, no speed limits, and no helmet law, Newfoundland just might be the last frontier of Canadian
snowmobiling.

Welcome
back to Iceland! In this episode we continue our trek through the land of 'fire

cave we looked through! Comprised of ice that is thousands of years, we felt
fairly confident it would hold up for the duration of our visit. We also get
some local culture in this episode as we tour Reykjavik, stop in at an artist's
studio and get serenaded by the Icelandic musical phenomenon, Bubbi. And of
course there's more awesome glacier riding, and beautiful vistas: Iceland is
