Shane Posted August 20, 2018 Author Share Posted August 20, 2018 Here are two new pictures I just saved from the Webcam at the summit. The concrete base pillars have been set, and we should no doubt start seeing the upper terminal begin its assembly very soon. Tremblant also posted a blog update on the progress on the Grand Manitou lodge, with some pictures. You can check it out here : https://blogue.tremblant.ca/makeover-for-le-grand-manitou/ I was initially a bit skeptical they could do such a big expansion in half a year but the way they are doing it by adding on the steel extensions then building the roof and walls seems like it will be done in record time.

Shane Posted August 23, 2018 Author Share Posted August 23, 2018 A new update on the Tremblant blog for the Lowell Thomas Express installation with some photos and video. Mostly pouring and setting the tower bases. https://blogue.tremblant.ca/lowell-thomas-progression/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shane Posted September 12, 2018 Author Share Posted September 12, 2018 The contours and bull wheel are going up quickly. Remember that Tremblant opens November 22nd, and this will be the first lift to open for the season. With the foundations and towers going up quickly, and both terminals, the lift is forming before our very eyes each and every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordo Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Isn't the gondola the first to open? I'm interested in the new "Glade" runs that will be new for this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted September 13, 2018 Author Share Posted September 13, 2018 Technically yes the Gondola is the first to open but it is just an access lift to get to the upper mountain. Typically the Lowell Thomas is the first lift to ski laps from, and on good years the TGV as well. For me, eager to see the new lift and the upgrades / expansion to the Grand Manitou summit chalet.

Paul Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 That looks pretty amazing. When you have great weather, and a great team on the job, work can get done quickly. Can’t wait to see the finished lift Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
