Two weeks since i've skied and it's already too much haha
Nowhere open in Quebec this weekend (apart Mont-Saint Sauveur). I'm thinking about crossing the borders because Sunday River and Sugarloaf are closer for me than MSS.

So, where's the place to ski? Which one has the best conditions ?

+K for answers ! Thanks !

Sugarloaf will have more trails open and probably more park features

skied both this weekend. Sunday River was really sketchy saturday, lots of mud at the bottom, but from what I've seen sunday was better. I'm not entirely sure they'll make this weekend but if they do they'll probably have a few features

Sugarloaf on the other hand will definitely be open, they aren't even close to running out of snow yet but I'm not sure about the park. This was supposed to be the last weekend but saturday night a groomer tore down the small jumpline on accident so park crew is fighting to get the mountain to let them have features this weekend.

Basically I'd wait till later this week to decide

Anyway i'm going there with friends and I don't think i'll ski park...

As I see better pay a lift ticket at Sugarloaf than going to ski maynia at Sunday River haha!

"There won't be any features available this weekend. All flattened out for the season."

Loaf has much better terrain for skiing all mountain but Sunday Rivers park is better. BUT sugarloafs jump line flows hella nice.
