This wild and remote ski domain is located in
the Matane Reserve, western Chic-Chocs. Experimented in 2004, it became
the favorite trip for those who feel skiing is more important than
after-ski. Best snow conditions in the range, protected from wind
effect by its open forests that typify several aspects spread on three
mountains: Blanc, Craggy and Pointu. Some great open snow fields are
also accessible if the weaher allows to do the summit. The camp
location gives a quick access to several slopes and it is possible to
ride 4 to 8 runs representing 800-1800m of vertical drop per day,
depending of your level of fitness, abilities and snow conditions. For
fit skiers of intermediate to expert level, telemarkers or snowboarders
(we rent split boards!). In five years of operation, no trace of other
parties but mooses were seen! From a remote little town, a
1¼hour snowmobile ride brings you to our camp, comprising
two 12'*14' heated prospector tents and a large Yourte sit at the base
of mounts Blanc and Craggy, for a minimum of three days trip.
