Really, Really Great!
91 Open Trails and 38 Park Modules all ready to go!
The temps are forecasted to rise to -9C under mostly
sunny skies and the winds are moderate, from the
North-West or coming up the Mountain on the Beauvallon sector.
There will be lots of places below the summit to find quiet
trail-side spots to catch some warming rays, as out of the
breezes there should be lots of thermal energy in the sun.

A Short Rant Re: The Therapeutic Value of Skiing/Snowboarding:
(inspired by conversation with a lazy Gym rat/Skier)
Forget the Gym, hit the slopes at Tremblant!
Today is exactly the kind of day that contributes
toward the good health of any Tremblant participant.
Fresh air, exercise, the performance and improvement
of an athletic skill set, are all well known factors that make
Skiing and Snowboarding part of a healthy lifestyle.
Not only is there the physiological benefit of extended
periods of vigorous exercise, but there is the psychological
benefit as well. These psychological benefits of exercise
from the pursuit of sports such as skiing and snowboarding
are well documented, in terms of both improvement in mood
and positive personal outlook. In some medically diagnosable
conditions such as chronic pain or depression, for example,
exercise can be a critical element in both treatment and
symptom reduction. S.A.D., or Seasonal Affective Disorder,
commonly referred to as "Cabin Fever", is another example of
a medically defined condition where sufferers respond well to
more outdoor hours of sun and exercise.
Skiing and Snowboarding literally make you healthier, and happier.
These positive health benefits could be said to be associated with
participation in many different forms of athletics, and that
would be true, however, there are very few sports activities
that can match the raw exhilaration of Downhill Alpine Skiing
or Snowboarding, that are so readily available to the public.
Having a facility that offers the Quality of the Alpine experience
at the level we have at Tremblant is a privilege.
Tremblant has 60 kilometers of immaculate Alpine Slopes,
on over 600 acres, offering a wide variety of terrain for all levels,
from beginners, all the way up to experts. The challenge of mastering
and improving your Ski/Board skills is both thrilling and rewarding
in every healthy respect in this unique and beautiful environment.
So then, if it is within your ability to do so, why would you choose
to go to a Gym at this time of the year, when you can get out
in the fresh air and have so much benefit from days on
the Slopes at Tremblant?!
The answer, of course, is that you should immediately make plans
to go skiing or boarding... don't waist another moment debating it.
The conditions we have right now at Tremblant are a gift from
Mother Nature that would be foolish to pass on.
