We spent our first full day in Mont Tremblant skiing. The weather was overcast, but the temperature was comfortable and the snow conditions were good.
Skiing on the south side by the village was busy, so once at the top of the gondola, we skied on the Versant Soleil. Nadine skied a few runs on the Algonquin run, which is the only beginner run on the Versant Soleil. This long run does not seem to have as much snow as other areas of the resort, and was not open when we were here in January, so this is Nadine’s first time skiing the runs on this side of the mountain.
Here is a video of Nadine finishing a run on Algonquin and coming toward the Soleil Express chairlift.
When it was time for lunch, I convinced Nadine to ski an intermediate run, and we skied Toboggan. This allowed us to access the Trapper’s Refuge cabin for lunch, which is always less crowded than eating at the top of the mountain or down in the village.
After lunch, we continued to ski on the Versant Soleil for the remainder of the day.
In the evening, we watched the kids tubing next to the hotel before heading out for dinner.
For dinner, we had reservations at La Forge, in the steakhouse upstairs. We had heard good things about this restaurant, and it didn’t disappoint.
