[2] Formerly, this segment of the historic path was taken by the Amerindians and the Jesuit missionaries to walk from Quebec to their mission of Métabetchouane at lac Saint-Jean, where a fur trading post, established in 1676, was closed in 1703.

[2] In 1989, the Commission de toponymie du Québec designated three mountains in the Jacques-Cartier National Park by the names Adagio, Allegro and Andante.

Of Italian origin, these three words correspond to three types of movements (adagio, slow; allegro, lively; andante, moderate) that one meets in classical music (symphony, concerto, sonata, etc.).

These literary works reveal the poet's great love for nature and his deep respect for peasant morality, always steeped in the rhythm of the seasons and the needs of the land.

[3] The toponym “Mont Andante” was formalized on February 7, 1989, at the Place Names Bank of the Commission de toponymie du Québec.
