Description
La Mauricie est une région du Québec située entre celle de la Capitale Nationale et Lanaudière. La route est longue, tortueuse de Shawinigan le long de la rivière Saint-Maurice jusqu'aux cascades de glace,mais elle a l'avantage d'offrir un panorama à couper le souffle sur de nombreuses coulés du village de Grandes Piles à La Tuque. En Mauricie nous pouvons également explorer le Parc National de la Mauricie, bien que l'autorisation de grimper en glace demeure à confirmer. La plupart des grimpeurs emprunte la route 155 afin de grimper Topaze, la grande classique.
