13 Feb Skiing on Mont Royal

A.T. took a solo trip skiing on Mont Royal.  Taking a few photos along the way, he noted the finish line of Bertie Lane's first ride up Cote des Nieges hill.


  Along the way to Smith House he saw that toboggans are no longer used on Mont Royal, only crazy carpets and inner tubes.



   Perhaps there is need to re-found the Montreal Toboggan Club?

   After a coffee at Smith House, he skied from the cross to the monument.
