The Ultimate Skiing Adventure: Tremblant in Canada
from: Maxx Adventure TravelTremblant, in the province of Quebec, is the skiing capital of Canada with more than 90 runs servicing enthusiastic skiers every year.

The facility maintains natural snow from November to April, however this doesn't eliminate anyone during the rest of the year with their revolutionary Avalanche system that actually instantly turns water into snow. If you're wondering how the system works, Tremblant has 885 guns that spray a cooling gassy chemical onto the snow and this coverage not only turns water into snow in minutes, it also maintains the organic snow forever ensuring the temperature is just right without turning the snow to ice. This revolutionary system will also alter the temperature of the snow for big events, however the main advantage is 365 days a year of snow.
