The Chic-Chocs contain the highest mountains in Quebec and get far more snow than any other part of the Appalachians. It is the only place in North America where deer, moose and woodland caribou co-exist. We will ski for 5 days staying at comfortable wood stove heated cabins on our way to Pic de l'Aube 920m (3,000 feet).
The trail is of intermediate to expert calibre and varies from easy to difficult depending on snow conditions. Daily distances vary from 10 to 21 km (6 to 15 miles). We should have remarkable views as we ski above the tundra covered cliff wall, which looks out over the Lower St. Lawrence River. There are many small lakes and ponds along our route that are extremely beautiful in freshly falling snow.
Our supplies will be moved for us each day by snow machine so you may want to do some optional touring or telemark skiing after we arrive at the night's cabin especially on day's 4, 5 and 6. Our first and last night will be spent at the Gite du Mont Albert with gourmet dinners and breakfasts included.
