Casey Air strip, Québec, Canada

[Mafois]

Casey air strip is an old abandoned landing strip north west of La Tuque in Québec, Canada that was built during the Cold War. At each year during the Labor Day week-end, a big meet of aviator and overlander is organized and this is how it went for us for this year. It's in French but once again, I added English subtitles

This is the 1st episode of 2

Hi,

That looks awesome! Would you share your route on map? Like on google map maybe?
I am trying to plan a week-long trip for my family next summer through Quebec from Ontario to reach Gaspe and back.
Would love to take some advise on what to visit along the route. Was thinking actually to detour and include that air field in our route also.

Thanks.

if you're headed Ontario to Gaspe, be sure to try and take in the north shore of the St lawrence river. from Quebec city to Tadoussac

Thanks for the advise. Is it road to that airfield or something else?

Casey Air strip is a BIG detour if you're heading to Gaspé passing throught Tadoussac, but thats sound's like a very nice trip You could do this route https://goo.gl/maps/UGDGY64aYY4JvEoz7 or this one and via Saguenay lac St-Jean https://goo.gl/maps/cdXKu39WGPJwnaY58
