The valley of the "Rivière des Cèdres" is indirectly served by the route 381 which runs along the course of the Ha! Ha! River and Lake Ha! Ha! for the needs of forestry, agriculture and recreational tourism. Some secondary forest roads serve this valley.
Forestry is the main economic activity in the sector; recreational tourism, second.
The surface of the Rivière des Cèdres is usually frozen from the beginning of December to the end of March, however the safe circulation on the ice is generally made from mid-December to mid-March.
