Awesome conditions you got there.  Looks westernlike.

My family is up here as well all week. Sunday, temps were brutal, but have only gotten better. Still got a few more day to go. We love Tremblant!

Jeff and family have been finding all the snow.  That is for sure.
The family that skis together, stays together.

Nice, glad you hit the jackpot.  Can't wait to hear about first tracks on the morning after a storm.  Old f'in Milwaukee!

Looks awesome - I visited Tremblant with my wife last season for the first time - and really enjoyed the place.  Definitely will go back.

Pretty cool that the ADKs are part of the Laurentians (I think?).  The area surrounding Tremblant has a cool vibe.

Did you find it to be insanely crowded for the holiday now that temps have come back up?


Edit: Just checked and they are reporting 41cm today...you so lucky!!!!

Magnifique!

Actually thinking of taking a trip to this area next year myself during this same time (winter break).

Great report , glad ur enjoying tremblant .. Great shot of the Beauvellon , that view of the lake is always awesome , Try Superieur on the NORD a black next to CBC also a tres kewl shot  . Try the old watrfall on The Ryan on the SUD its retro  and old school skiing vibe ..., looks like the kids discovered Windigo glades 😎.

Great week u times it perfectly , we always stay in an Auberge on the Versant Nord its a guys trip and that is a bit different than with family . Enjoy try Old Tremblant village or Sainte Jovite for other off venue experiences

Congratulations on the timing and giving the kids the maple taffy treatment. When we did that at Mont Blanc a few years back, my wife was ready to bag the skiing and stay the entire afternoon at the sugar shack.

You're skiing five days at Tremblant? Go try one of the off-the-beaten-path joints too (La Reserve, etc.)!

Excellent report. Mt T is a fun place. You hit it at a good snow time and are also reaping the Canadian discount. You are 2-2 on vacation choices this season. Maybe you should hit the casino.

Tremblant is owned by Intrawest, so paid first tracks are a must.  Stratton and Steamboat do it as well, and their former resort Mountain Creek does as well.  Steamboat limits first tracks ticket sales, but it looks like Tremblant does not.  You basically get to pay extra for the same crowds everyone else has.  Seems ridiculous IMO.

Damn man kinda negative response to a great post by Jeff... That looks awesome and as you mentioned not as crowded as you would have expected from that line!

I didn't respond negatively to his post.  The conditions look great.  I think that it's a ripoff to pay for first tracks when you get the same "powder hour" that everyone else gets.

Quality stoke Jeff!

What a great trip for you and your family, very nice. That shot one shot looking down the ski run with the views.....dang! I want to be there.

That double stager lookers left on Dynamite looks fun.

What is that guy wearing the yellow jacket doing down by that lift tower? Whatever it is it doesn't look like fun :)

I have read a lot of so-so reviews about Tremblant and from your photos it looks like a really fun place from where I'm sitting. Maybe some people just don't like it's resort-iness or whatever?
