Mont Tremblant resort to receive $17M facelift

The company that owns the Mont Tremblant ski resort announced Monday it will spend $17 million in renovations and upgrades at the site.

The Alterra Mountain Company announced the renovations would include replacing the Lowell Thomas chairlift, renovating and expanding summit chalet Le Grand Manitou, creating new glades, renovating La Fourchette du Diable on the North Side base, as well as other upgrades.

Snow-making capacity will be increased with the acquisition of 31 snow guns.

Much of the work is expected to be completed in time for the 201819 ski season.
