Revised Open Trail Count to 65(*) Attached Below.

18 Hours Ago it was +8C, now it’s -14C,
and in between, it snowed 7cm’s in a High Wind.
There Are Two Things That Are Going To Make Positive,
Critical Differences Today.
Number One:
Grooming.

Grooming Machine are the primary method of rendering fine,
even, Snow particle size after any “Thermal Event”, like the
whole East Coast of North America has just had.
Number Two:
Sharp, Tuned Edges.

Automated Tuning Machine is arguably the finest device on Planet
Earth to produce a flawless running edge on Skis or Board.(**)

The Laws Of Physics Apply, so...
There is a very high probability of wide ranging Surface Conditions
that include everything from Excellent, Smooth Carving Corduroy
to Icy bits, due to the variations in Temperatures and Fresh Snowfall
retention shaped by the wind.
Some direct wind-facing areas, particularly over topographical crests
may be most susceptible to exposed Icy surfaces. Todays traffic may
cause more of those areas to become evident if the top layers of
finished grooming are moved to the sides, or down the slopes.
What should be apparent though, are that these slick zones are in
recognizable patterns that can be anticipated for safe navigation.
Mountain Guests need to be patient for a day while Crews deal
with the weather effects, but we would like to remind all who may
read this now or in the future...
No One Can Restore, Refresh, Repair, or Rejuvenate Alpine Snow Sport
Trails Quicker Than The Pro’s of Tremblant’s Mountain Operations Group.
When it comes to getting the Mountain “Back Up To Speed”, the talented
Crews here at Tremblant move very quickly to produce real results overnight.
Some Of What Happened...

We would also like to point out that there are possibilities
for changes in the Open Trail count during the day, today.
The current Open Trails are a fraction of the previous and
the majority of that snow has not gone anywhere. Trails have
been closed mostly for safety and preservation. Tremblant’s
Ski Patrol and Mountain Op’s work together to bring as much
on-line as soon as they can and we think you may see
increases or adjustments throughout the day for that reason.

and Careful Explorations. There was about 7cm’s
of new Snowfall, but it came with a relatively
strong North, Nor-West Wind, so there will likely
be some icy bits due to exposure after the re-freeze.

and they have a “CRAZY-GOOD" OVERNIGHT TUNE-UP Deal.
If you don’t have a a recent Tune, take your gear in there tonight!
