Mont Tremblant Ski Race 1945

[Gordo]

Check out this archival film from 1945. A section features a ski race at Mont Tremblant and also footage of their single chair lift.

Amazing video. It would be fun to ride the old single chairlift for that experience. Luckily we can always visit Mad River Glen who have done a phenomenal job to maintain theirs. 

Great find.

I love the style of skiing they were using. No slalom, just pure bombing the hill, straight down. Some of the racers looked to be barely in control and on the edge of losing it. Great video though. That mountain sure has changed over the years, especially since the 90s.
