Itinerary description

Parked at Piemond village and started my trail by hopping on Passerelle Jacques Raymond to traverse La Rivière du Nord and reach P’tit Train du Nord trail. After a small wander on this lovely bike trail by the river, i ventured left on L’érablière trail and started mounting up to reach the first peak at the cross of Mt. Pinnacle that sadly was fallen. Then continued up on Wizzard and La passe trails to reach the top of Mt. Olympia, at the head of the ski slopes.
Then turned my way back and trekked towards Lac des Castors. An impressive lake, which its dam is constructed by beavers.
Then i continued to start making the second loop. Headed to Lake Paradis then Prevost village and passed by its beautiful cabannes while checking the beautiful cliff on my left that after i started mounted up progressively and had my break in top of it with a beautiful panorama overlooking the village of Prevost.
I had my crampons on since the beginning, there wasn’t much snow but it was slippery.
