Great resort however lots of short runs. Some great cliffs and powder areas away from the groomers but they dont get the snow they used to and so often the whole resort is quite bare. But terrain parks always wicked and often goes up in level from the start to the finish of them.

Great ski resort for beginners or kids. Chalets are great but are often booked for private events. It's a busy hill but express chairs and lots of lifts keep lines short once you get up the gondola. Runs are short and open so not much for tree runs, advanced runs are just steep and often icy.

One of the easier hills in Banff if you dont mind the busyness of it then this is the place to be. Its been a month since Ive been back so powder might have gotten better but it was just alright last time I was there
