If you skied down Lowell Thomas to the Tunnel glade, you came out to a clearing from which a boot pack led to the top of the Expo lift(not running). From there you could get runs off Expo, Nitro and Dynamite with little company. This was a one and done for us as the line for the Duncan was 15+ minutes. Tremblant is great, but did not enjoy the squirrelly rides through Montreal with some of the worst drivers north of DC.

I saw the folks hiking up and we considered it but passed. Was having a ton of fun without the extra exertion.

Bypassing Montreal is something I'll consider next time. The route Google takes you through is a narrow mess of a road. Going up we were in and out in about 30 minutes but it was much longer heading back because of a truck breaking down.
