Two Quebecers tackling Mount Meru

Hi Jean-Michel! The trek you mentioned sounds really interesting. But I think for the next few years, my partner and I are going to stick to trips that are accessible for both of us. We’re planning to head up to the northern part of your country once our business is sold, then make our way south to visit some vineyards. And there are still so many places in Canada—and even in Quebec—that we haven’t seen yet. (In the summer, we’re tied up full-time with our vineyard.)

For Meru, the agencies didn’t all agree on how difficult the trek was. Some said it was accessible to any good hiker—which we are—while others claimed you needed to be in great shape with training. But it’s true that an extra day would’ve helped. If we’d slept more at night, we would’ve had more energy in our legs. 🙂

True, the conditions weren't optimal!

We're planning to visit the north of your country

I'm not sure where you draw the line when talking about the north of France, but if it matches what we now call the 'Hauts de France,' I think there are better regions—though the people are really friendly.

In the summer, we're busy full-time with our vineyard).

You mean you have vineyards in Quebec?!
