Le Diable & Le Géant

Le DiableWinding through stands of stately pine trees and rolling bunkers, Le Diable (“The Devil”) can best be described by a single word – dramatic. The renowned team of Dr. Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry took their inspiration from the eye-catching Arizona-style golf courses. Their team created 18 sinuous fairways, each leading to an oasis of green surrounded by a seemingly endless desert of fiery red sand. Le Diable hosted the 1999 Export “A” Skins Game as well as Canada’s Prime Minister Jean Chrétien and former U.S. President Clinton.

Famed course architect Thomas McBroom’s Le Géant is mountainous and muscular. Le Géant’s design merited Golf Digest’s 4 ½ starts award in 1998, and was ranked one of the Top 50 Courses by SCORE GOLF. As if the long fairways, spectacular views and split-level plateaus weren’t enough to challenge a golfer’s concentration, there are two manmade lakes and 52 carefully-placed soft white sand features to contend with.

Maple Syrup - Part of Quebec's Rich Heritage

Collecting sap in TremblantAttracted by the fur trade, European settlers first arrived in Quebec in the 1600s. It was during that time that the First Nations people introduced the settles to maple syrup, and it has been a favorite Quebecois tradition ever since.

Before modern methods of extensive piping and industrial boilers, settlers tapped trees by hand and left hanging buckets to collect the sap, “a sweet, watery liquid that flows through Maple trees in springs”. The buckets were collected two to three times a day and taken to a “sugar shack” (known in Quebec as a Cabane à sucre), where they were dumped into huge pots and boiled over log fires.

“It takes about 40 litres of sap to make on liter of pure syrup, but the delicious golden liquid is well worth the trouble.”

The maple harvesting lasted three to six week, and when finished a “sugaring-off” celebration was held to mark the end of the flowing sap. Friends and family gathered at the sugar shack for a traditional meal of pea soup, omelets, fried pork rinds, maple-cured ham, boiled potatoes, beans baked in a pure maple syrup and pancakes to celebrate. As a seasonal treat, maple taffy was made by pouring the syrup directly on the snow. Outdoor activities and dances were encourage to burn off the excess calories.

This unique sugaring-off party tradition continues today in eastern North America, in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Manitoba and many American states which produce maple syrup. But it is Quebec that dominates the industry, producing approximately 90 percent of the world’s maple syrup.

Be sure to take advantage of a “sugaring-off” party in Tremblant from March to early May. If you visit outside these months, you can still participate in another local culinary tradition, tourtière.
