Mont-Avalanche, in Saint-Adolphe-d'Howard in Quebec’s Laurentians, began in 1957 as a local ski hill and grew into a year-round outdoor resort. With a 130-meter vertical drop, 16 alpine trails, lift access, snowmaking, and amenities including a ski school and rentals, it serves skiers of varying abilities while keeping a small, community-scale character. Its recreation extends beyond downhill skiing to Nordic touring, snowshoeing, and fatbiking in winter, then hiking, mountain biking, and occasional outdoor events in warmer months. Owned by the municipality and managed by Plein Air St-Adolphe-d'Howard, it remains a longstanding local recreational asset valued for broad seasonal use.
