The Edge is a separate part of the mountain, where the runs do not begin from the main summit. It is a slightly lower side peak, next to the Versant Nord. There are not a lot of runs over there, and it is mostly known for its gladed runs. For traditional groomed runs, they really only have one, plus a half another run next to it. Because I don’t ski gladed runs, I very rarely ski on the Edge. The one main run they do have is a decent run, but there’s not enough variety over there. But the biggest problem with skiing The Edge, is that it is served by an older fixed-grip quad chair, which takes forever to ride to the top. I like to spend my time skiing and not sitting on the lift!
To get to the Edge, you first must ski down Beauchemin Bas on the Versant Nord, and eventually cut to the left on Letendre, which will bring you to the base of the lone chairlift on The Edge.
To return to the rest of the mountain, you continue below the base of the lift along Letendre, to reach the base of the Versant Nord. Alternatively, you can follow Bon Vivant off the top of the chairlift, and it will return you to the Versant Sud, part way down Nanses.
The Bon Vivant trail is a connector trail to transfer from the top of the Edge chairlift to the Versant Sud.

The Letendre trail is a connector trail to transfer from the Versant Nord to The Edge, and continues from The Edge back to the Versant Nord. It runs right past the base of the chairlift serving The Edge.

The Action trail is the only non-gladed black run on The Edge. It’s a nice run, and rarely crowded, but the bottom half of it is more intermediate difficulty than advanced. If you’re looking for something different, and don’t mind a slow chairlift ride up, then maybe give it a try. Once.
