Reviews

This is a great mountain to try if you want to advance your technique and looking for a no fuss day of skiing. Its a smaller mountain compared to nearby mountains like sunshine or lake Louis. Family friendly. Great ski school. Lots of moguls.

Overall it was a very nice ski hill! It was a bit of a ski-elitist place but we had a good time regardless! The moguls were very iced out unfortunately but the runs were nice and long and they had a good amount of options!
