95/95(*) Open Trails... 100% Tremblant!

"Temp's Up, Hat's Off!"
Hey... that cool style make you look years younger!
Despite the closeness to Zero C, Tremblant Get's more Snow!
Eastern North America continues to experience a quite mild
string of days with Tremblant riding on the very edge of the
Zero C Freezing mark. The Forecasts have been up/down/up/down,
but amazingly within a very narrow 1 or 2 degree range. Today's
forecast shows a South Base level with the possibility of up to
+3 C with the sun poking through. The wind forecast remains
very light, so we'll just have to wait and see how it plays out.
Yesterday saw plus 1 for about 2.5 hours, but fortunately, at the
South Resort Base where it occurred, it was overcast, thereby
eliminating any compounding solar effects, and there was almost zero
wind, thereby eliminating any "blow dryer" effects. The "plus" would
have only been felt a short way up the South Face vertical and due to
the very light, or no apparent wind, overwhelmed by the ambient
"Cold Air Sinking" convection of Tremblant's immense, deeply frosted
conical mass of bedrock from 2000 feet of higher elevation.
Consequently, the North and Edge and all Summit Sectors are completely,
totally White Winter Wonderful this morning with fresh snow and 100% Open,
with virtually flawless coverage.
This morning at Tremblant...

Saved by the narrowest margin, pure Winter conditions live on for
another day at Tremblant from Top-to-Bottom.
You may find scenes like this one above today as the weather is forecast
to clear off, so Skiing under the cloud ceiling may give way to sunny breaks
later on. The brightness on the far rock face was actually sun in this one.
The Big U.S. "Presidents" Holiday Week is in the history books
now so this week may seem light in trail traffic for those
fortunate enough to be here now. While the actual holiday was
only a day last week, many American Ski/Board enthusiasts convert
it into a week. Completely understandable given that it's such a fine
time of the season for a very user friendly combination of total
Mountain Winter coverage, with longer daylight/lift hours and
generally milder temps.
The Mountain will now start to see rotating "Spring Break" guests
as regional zones within both Canada and the U.S. take the
traditional late Feb., early March school breaks.

We are very pleased to be able to report that Algonquin on Versant
Soleil is being shown as Groomed. You know optimal development
of Tremblant's Groomed terrain is being realized when this masterpiece
of modern trail design is given the finishing it deserves to render
some of the smoothest learning terrain on planet Earth.
Acres 'n Acres Of Algonquin... Some of the finest cruising/learning slopes
in Eastern North America, Algonquin is a trail that allows the skier to work
on establishing a rhythm along an extended distance over 4 kilometres.
The vast majority of learners have to make do with the typically short
trails of their Home areas appropriately designated Green, where rhythmic
re-enforcment in the learning process is often impossible to achieve.
Algonquin's long gentle descent allows learners to make far more rapid
progress by nothing other than kilometre after kilometre of undisturbed
repetitive rhythmic practice.
We elaborate on this point in our Tremblant Geographic Trail Catalogue
Feature on Algonquin, if you'd like more detail.
