Whether you’re looking for fall-line powder, through the trees, thrilling freestyle parks or wide gentle beginner trails, you’ll find perfect terrain for every style and ability. The resort features children’s facilities such as the Kids’ Park and numerous winter activities, including dog sledding and snowmobiling. A day-care facility is also available to take good care of the children while parents enjoy the snow.
