Mont Tremblant, Quebec is where it's at right now.

Sha-wing!

"Hazardous winter conditions are expected. A weather system from Colorado will reach Western Quebec this morning. Snow will then spread toward Quebec City and the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean and reach Eastern Quebec later in the evening. Amounts of 15 to 25 centimetres are expected for some regions north of the St Lawrence and over parts of the Gaspe Peninsula. Up to 40 centimetres could fall over Sept-Iles and Minganie. Moderate to strong winds combined with snow will reduce visibilities in blowing snow. ### Rapidly accumulating snow could make travel difficult over some locations. Visibility will be suddenly reduced to near zero at times in heavy snow and blowing snow. Winter storm warnings are issued when multiple types of severe winter weather are expected to occur together. Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to ec.cpiq_tempetes-qspc_storms.ec@canada.ca or tweet reports to #meteoqc."

Nice!

Forgot to mention two cool glades - both on the map as well - Tunnel - short hike up a hill half way down Lowell Thomas. Real nice woods, and a cool thin bump trail right down the middle if the woods aren't perfect.

Then half way down Ryan on the left, Les Beuleux. Hiking involved, but cool payoff of some kind of dead hardwood glades...If there is a lot of snow on the ground, would probably skip this, as the hike would get tougher, and there are plenty of good woods to hit without it.

If it's a powder morning - I would ride the gondola, go Lowel Thomas > Tunnel, Hard left turn out of that through Short Cut woods, make your way over to the Edge lift right away, Sensation Glade a few times, then Emotion Glade out of there when it's time to more on.

Another fun loop we did a bunch on a day with super nice snow was, riding the Expo lift, Buzz glades to Duncan, first hard left back to Rapids with was perfect bumps under the Duncan lift....

CBC is killer with fresh snow, but there is a fair amount of run out a the end of that trail - and careful - don't miss the second part of the trail - first part dumps you out onto a main trail, then you have to make a hard right to get back onto CBC.


Oh man, have a blast. Post pics.

Arrived at Tremblant early this evening. I tried Alexander Keith's India Pale Ale. My God, it's 100% a lager, obviously. Looks and tastes like it. Canada has an urgent beer crisis. All of their resources should be thrown at this issue.

Go to the IGA Supermarket in the town of Mont-Tremblant. They have an awesome selection of craft Quebec beers with a giant walk in cooler. Things like Unibrou and others. When I was there last spring, we stocked up and didn't drink at the bar all that much.

Also the micro-brewery within the Mont-Tremblant village at the base is not bad, but pricy.

Well, how are the conditions and the mountain?

Conditions are undeniably good. I'll post a TR in a couple of days. The mountain is currently buried and a storm is coming in, supposedly.

Good to hear!
I'm seeing snow tonight into tomorrow AM, followed by some rain tomorrow PM into Thursday AM. Then a cold weekend with Friday and most of Saturday being single digits.

Have not been there in YEARS, but agree. Tremblant is very well organized. We had hoped to get there and too Masif this winter, though our plans this season have had a mis-adventure.

Any pics?
