....and it's still snowing now.

Starting out at -12 C this morning in St. Jovite, temps are
forecasted to rise throughout the day to -4C which is HUGE
improvement in the comfort factor.

Oh Yeah, we do like our snow well chilled, but after 3 days of
quite nippy, really freekin' cold... we're happy to get some relief
for fingers 'n toes that we weren't quite sure where they were...
until they thawed out... then we knew were they were....

Repeat... 20 C, or almost 70 F WARMER than yesterday!

Of Course...

The conditions are Outstanding, Excellent, damn near Perfect!

The performance characteristics of the Snow Surfaces at Tremblant
are exceptionally fine.

Conditions also get better every day as the result of overnight grooming that
carefully compacts all the new snow into the base on the groomed runs
and ensures that all skill levels from "Never Ever" beginners, right up
to experts will find terrain that is delightfully user friendly.

Above: This Skier clearly shows the performance capabilities of all the
Groomed runs at Tremblant with this one moment of time and space.

The run this picture was taken on, Versant Nord, the North Side, "Sissy Schuss",
was cut in 1948 and to this day, in our opinion, it remains one of the finest
learning environments on planet Earth for any skill level.

Absolute beginners can find a consistent, easy pitch and almost always flawless
Smooth Surfaces that help establish fundamentals, while experts can find
exceptional grip and lateral traction to develop refinements in edge control
and the nuances of carving, body position and other elements of technique
that bring anyones skills to a higher level.

Experts Only:

T360 Apres Ski, Late Night Edition @ 12:30 A.M.

As stated above, 20C or close to 70 degrees F Warmer
than yesterday, has to be the really big story, even thought
all the new Snow is important too.

Everything from riding lifts, to exploring terrain was so
much more user friendly today. All fingers 'n toes fully
on-line and ready to rock in all that new Overnight Snow!

We drove to the North and sorta' stayed there cause we could
only get out for the afternoon. Getting to the Summit put us
right into the cloud anyway, so we were content with the
North Side Macro-Views which were just as beautiful as
yesterday's.

The Social media comments have been slightly critical of wait times at lifts,
but the longest we waited at Duncan was 7 minutes using the singles line
off the far side, at the foot of the Duncan trail and 4 minutes at Expo
in the regular line... shown below.

Singles line shown above on the left side at Expo was 2-3 minutes,
not long at all.

Big News For Expo Fans...

As we were leaving the North Side Parking Lot, the Grooming Crew was just
getting started on the Expo Upper Pitch.

There will be a ton of happy people about that!

There's quite a bit of new snow and quite a bit of drifting
along with it...

Interesting to see all the fat, wide hot-dog rocker'd Powder Skis
out today.

There was so much new snow it might be a bit intimidating for
beginners, as even a wee bit thick can catch edges for newbies.

There will be a lot of packing tonight and tomorrow will see
a decided improvement in the Groomed list. The un-groomed
may be a bit more of a wild card because in some cases the
new was enough to cover some previously exposed natural
hazards, but not enough to bury them sufficiently. Care and
complete speed control are essential in un-groomed.

It will be different again tomorrow, so plan to get out early and stay
late for more super smooth terrain thanks to Mountain Crews Night Shift!
