As a skier thats used to only groomed runs European resorts, I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of powder on the slopes this past weekend. Due to the abundant powder, the resort decided that most of the runs would be left ungroomed for the day and I had the opportunity to experience powder skiing which was unlike anything else
I must admit to only trying out the green and blue runs - which turned out to be fairly challenging at times with steep terrain up to 29 degrees! That coupled with the ungroomed unofficial moguls gave my legs a proper, well deserved workout!
The food at the lodges were decent but the price of beer was extortionate although that did not stop us from enjoying one! There were plenty of room in the lodges for everyone to rest during lunch hour
Rentals were available in town for reasonable prices. We arrived near the end of season and most of the shops were having clearance sale so we managed to snag up new equipment for 40% off in most places!
The only complaint I had was the prices of the ski passes. Even with a friends and family discount code from my partner, the prices were still $113 for weekday and $125 over the weekend which is more than double what we pay in European resorts!
Overall not quite what I expected of spring skiing - definitely exceeded my expectation! Would love to try out other North American resorts in the future!
Incredible tree runs, moguls are awesome and many trails are left ungroomed.
Also the longest season in the east.
Infrastructure is great with constant investments.
I would recommend to anyone.
