----------------------------------------------------------


94 Open Trails under sunny skies with a
moderate North wind and daytime temps
just over the freezing mark at base level.

Summit temps should remain nicely below
freezing and with the North wind, we expect
the impact of solar energy to be reduced as the
Mountain should get a steady stream of cooling
air.

Slight cooling yesterday was helpful for
surface quality preservation and overnight
lows at or just below -10C are also welcome
for the same reason.

Todays Conditions report is brought to you
by the All New L'Algonquin Trail, located
on Versant Soleil!
We'll have more on this beautiful new addition to the
Tremblant list of classic ski runs later, but we thought
you might like to see an image typical of its character.
As you can see, L'Algonquin is a very wide, very well
engineered trail that you will love to add to your list
of favorites. The consistency of its slope and the
quality of its preparation are immediately apparent.
Beginner right through to experts will find this great
new trail a wonderful place to learn or refine technique.
Back To Mountain Conditions, Generally Speaking...

What we are looking for from Mother Nature
would firstly be a major blizzard, but if we
can't have that, then we need temps cool enough
that we don't lose our snow surface conditions
too quickly as spring definitely seems to be in
the air, as they say.

Surface conditions today will be variable due to the
direct sun and warm temps that some areas have gotten
and other areas have been sheltered from. There may be
slick portions to watch out for, so we encourage caution
this morning as you cruise around the Mountain. Speed
can be a dangerous thing if unexpected situations occur
within your pathway.

Yesterday we saw a "Close Call" where someone came
out of a trail side bush run at a high speed without looking
and came within inches of colliding with an innocent skier.

Unfortunately, the careless individuals may be the least
likely to respond to a call for safety, but that just means
the rest of us have to be always watching out. Safety is often
a "6th Sense" proactive awareness, so keep the eyes in the
back of your head alert.

Just for the record, here's a copy of the Official, printable
Grooming and Trail status report, courtesy of
http://www.tremblant.ca We never get tired of Tremblant winter scenes
and even though it may look like spring in places
you can still find these winter treasures if you take
the time to look for them. Typical of this time of year,
the North holds on to winter longer.

The transition to spring is beginning, so we encourage
one and all to get out to Tremblant to enjoy the fine
weather and the great skiing!

Our snow surfaces have some of the finest carving
conditions we've seen all season and half the fun is
exploring the Mountain to find the best lines.

The days of excellent conditions just keep coming
one after another.

The coolness of early this morning lingered in the air
all day. Of course there were places at the bottom of
Soleil and the South Side that got soft as the afternoon
progressed, however, on the North Side, things got fast.

Last run on Beauchemin, over on Axle to Lowell Thomas,
then across Gagnon to the side door of Sissy Schuss and
down the bottom half of Fuddle-Duddle, was rippin' quick
and all the surfaces had grip. Even the Beauchemin run-out
to the Duncan Chair was mostly dried up and firmed up,
so skating across the bottom of the North Side was easy
by 3:30.
