Everything you need to know about preparing your camp at the resort

To help you prepare for your visit, here is a reminder of the important elements of your camp before, during and after.

2. Have paid your deposit via our Paypal form that was sent to you by email when you signed the contract.

3. Have sent your $2 million insurance certificate with Mont Edouard as co-insurer to vertical@montedouard.com. Contact your association if you need information on this subject.

4. Aviser la station de tous changements au plan de repas au moins 5 jours avant votre arrivée. Aussi, informer la station des restrictions alimentaires dont nous devons prendre attention.

DURING

Registration of your team at the Builders' Lounge: Time to be determined with the camp coordinator.

The head coach must report to the Builders' Lounge, which is located behind the Bistro-bar in the main chalet. 

Within 24 hours of your arrival at the resort, please contact the Mont Edoaurd Head Camp Coordinator vertical@montedouard.com to schedule a meeting time for your registration.

The Mont Edoaurd Training Camp Coordinator will be there to welcome you and explain all the details to make your stay as pleasant as possible.

The 45 minute registration will allow you to

- Answer your questions about your camp;

- Visit the facilities/assign the day bag and ski storage areas

- Pick up ski tickets;

- Collect meal cards (must be presented as payment at the cashier);

- Register to the Connecteam platform.

What is Connecteam?

It is a communication platform that will be used by all coaches of registered teams to communicate with each other and with us. It will allow us to communicate schedules and set assignments and will make it easier for you to keep your practice logs at the station.  

Worried about how to use it?

Don't worry, when you register, a short training will be given to you to explain all the modalities and uses.

 

AFTER

BEFORE YOU LEAVE

It will be important to meet with the head camp coordinator to review the training log and provide feedback on your enjoyment of your stay.

BEFORE YOUR DEPARTURE

Within 7 to 10 business days following your camp, you will receive the invoice for your camp as well as the online payment request via our Paypal form. If you wish to pay the balance of your camp by check, you will have to advise the head coordinator at your end of camp meeting.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Assignment of trays / training schedules

The allocation of trays / training schedule for the next day will be done during the meeting with the coordinator of the Mont Edouard Training Camp in the builder's lounge, between 4:00 pm and 5:00 pm, every day. 

It is your responsibility to be present as adjustments will be made daily according to everyone's needs.

The first trail to be opened will be trail 4A, trail 3, followed by trails 6 and 7 as soon as snow conditions permit (see map below).   

Each track will be subdivided into different linear zones (training) depending on the snow conditions, which will be assigned to you in the form of a plateau according to your needs (slalom / giant slalom ...) 

Each club will be assigned a specific training area (plateau) in which you will be responsible for drawing your desired training line at the location determined, all in partnership with other adjacent teams to ensure the smooth operation and safety of all.

Ex. The first one to make his line will be the one from left to right, all the others will have to follow and be in symbiosis with this first one.  

The jump will have to be erected at the beginning of runway 4A, on the left side of the runway, to allow the passage of a slalom line on its right.

The last section at the bottom of run 3 will be reserved for freestyle skiing for a mogul course.  As soon as snow conditions permit, a slalom line will be possible adjacent to it.

Safety and first aid

  • In case of an accident, contact the Mont Edouard training camp cordoner directly, by radio and/or phone via the "Connecteam" application, we will follow up for the required quick care.

  • The patrol room, marked with a green and white cross, is located at the base of the mountain, in the building next to the main lodge, adjacent to the Mont Edouard ski club. See the Mont Edouard site map. 

  • In the event of an injury outside the mountain requiring professional medical services, an ambulance service is available in L'Anse-Saint-Jean by dialing 911.

  • The ambulance provides transportation to the nearest hospital, which is located in La Baie, QC: 

    • La Baie Hospital (418-544-3381)

      1000 Rue du Dr Desgagné, La Baie, QC G7B 2Y6

During your stay, we will continue to improve the quality of the trails and to increase the snow coverage in order to progressively offer you more trails, and this, as soon as possible, so please be understanding. 

Considering that many of you share a very limited number of trails at the beginning of this difficult season, we ask for your cooperation.  We will do our best to satisfy you as much as possible.
