71(*) Open Trails on the Very Fine Slopes of #Tremblant .
The difference a day can make is rarely more evident
than the superb, almost dramatic, upgrade to surface
quality that Tremblant Guests had the benefit of yesterday
and should see again today.
Icy Bits Largely Gone.

In last night’s Apres Ski, we examined two Trail Case Studies,
a “Green”, Sissy Schuss, and a "Double Black", Expo, to highlight
the differences a day or two can make, and the really excellent
part is that they were only two examples of Dozens of refinements
that Trail Snow surfaces got yesterday.

In the “Good Old Days”, which chronologically were “Old”,
but may not actually have been so “Good”, a January Thaw
that created large tracts of flowing glacial icy bits may have
taken either weeks or a giant blizzard to recover from.
At Tremblant in 2018, many of them are gone overnight, and
over sequential nightly Grooming shifts, they’re almost all gone
in 2 to 3 days.
Of course... A Giant Blizzard will always be welcome, but when
that’s not an immediate forecast expectation, having the quickness
of quality restored so fast seems almost miraculous.
For today, the morning should see a direct carry-over of yesterdays
new user friendly, and then this afternoon, additional softening due
to another rise in temps to the forecast high temp of + 4C by just
after lunch. Technically speaking, today may well be one of the best
pure performance days we’ve had in a while.
At these Temp. Values, we’re also very glad to have overcast to keep
sun off snow, even though the possibility of light rain later on is a risk that
we think could go either way, and at the Mountains cooler elevations,
could we see some Snowfall?
It could end up being a very “Spring-Like” Ski Day.
