We ventured out to Mount St. Hilaire for a hike. In and around Montreal there are a number of "mountains" that were formed when magma hardened the landscape and then the surrounding landscape eroded away leaving the "mountains" behind. Mount Royal, the mountain on the island, is one of these formations.
We also went out to Oka for a different hike (yes the Oka made famous for the stand-off in the 1990s, also famous for its cheese) and hiked in the provincial park up to a lookout over the St. Lawrence River. The trail wound its way through the trees past a number of small chapels all the way to the top. We ate Oka cheese and bagette at the top.
