Rakes are back on the trails!
The ski season ended on April 12, and just three days later, a team of 7 trail builders and excavator operators was already hard at work in the network. Right from the start, a full inspection of the trails made it possible to identify the work to be done and set priorities. This year’s challenge: a short window before the planned opening on May 15, combined with a chilly spring. There is still snow in some areas of the mountain, and about sixty trees need to be cleared following a particularly windy winter. That’s twice the usual number of fallen trees!
Although there is still some snow in places, the gradual thaw has allowed the ground to dry enough to carry out major work, including finishing the new trail La Temporaire (at the top of the Versant des Épinettes), as well as significant maintenance work across the network. Thank you for respecting trail closures so we can complete the work and ensure the best possible opening conditions.
Major overhaul of the Express du Lac
As many of you already know, major work is underway on the Express du Lac chairlift. These upgrades aim to fully modernize the lift to ensure its long-term durability, while also improving reliability and comfort through upgrades to the electrical and mechanical components.
Good news for the season! To maintain an optimal riding experience on the mountain, the Express des Épinettes (RM6) will be exceptionally open, featuring brand-new 4-bike racks. Two new trails, La Temporaire and La Déconnexion, have also been built to ensure a smooth connection with the rest of the network. Not to mention that the Express du Village lift will be open 7 days a week. 😉
