Mont Rougemont
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mont Rougemont is part of the Monteregian mountain chain in southern Quebec. It is composed of igneous rock and hornfels. The igneous material is composed almost entirely of mafic and ultramafic rock such as gabbro and olivine-bearing pyroxenite. The summit stands 366 meters above sea level.
The mountain is mostly covered with sugar maple-dominated forest. Apple orchards are cultivated on many of the lower slopes, and much of the fruit is used to make cider.
