This is the base of Mont Tremblant.
We got in line to go up on the gondola ... it was less than a five minute wait.
One time tickets are $20 |
The temperature at the top of the mountain was -24C/-11.2F ... there was definitely a windchill but I don't know what it was.
I was prepared for the cold this year and brought hand warmers for my mittens. I'm glad I did because it was freakin' cold!
Here are some pictures from the top of the mountain.
Le Grand Manitou which has a snack bar and pro shop |
Looking down at the village of Mont Tremblant |
We headed westward.
Can you tell how cold I was?! |
We headed towards the flag at the top of that hill |
Made it to the lookoff! |
We kept going |
We headed back to Le Grand Manitou for a rest and to warm up.
The bottle of water I'd had in my bag had frozen! |
Off again ... we headed eastward.
Looking back to where we'd started |
Back where we started, here are Gord and I.
We took the gondola back to the base of the mountain.
Yes, it was freezing cold but we had a lot of fun!
did that say -11F? Holy crap that is cold!!! Looks really pretty though.
ReplyDeleteFUN! I have always wanted to go snowshoeing!!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know you could go snowshoeing in Tremblant. I thought it was just a ski/snowboard place. I've been dying to go to Tremblant. One of these days...
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool that you got to go snowshoeing - that looks like a lot of fun!
