Ski Mt Tremblant Quebec

I escaped Toronto March 5th to the 8th and went to Mt. Tremblant Quebec with Ultimate Ski Vacations. I have done this trip several times before and once again was pleased with the courteous manner in which we were treated and entertained on the bus by Kevin Sturdy of All about Toronto. Kevin is very personable and a great tour leader as he has endless patience and humour in dealing with a wide diverse group of people.

Tremblant is now the number 1 ski destination in eastern North America, and it is absolutely incredible the real estate development which has taken place here. The new casino is under construction and should be open in June. What that does to the crowd of skiers/visitors is to be determined. An old ski tour associate of mine has moved from the travel industry into the real estate world. Herb Ratsch was a great ski tour marketing person and has moved from the employ of Intrawest and is now with Southeby's one of the world's leading recreational property realtors. Tremblant is now on the big stage.

I encourage any skier/traveller to check out Tremblant. Just rememember that if you go on a Saturday, the line ups will kill you, so get up early for the 8:30 left. Please note the mountain is empty on Sundays, so this is really the better day to get your $75.00 lift ticket value.
