Louis Botta

Came over on the heels of the mid-March Nor'easter that hit New England and the Maritimes. We skied Owl's Nest on our second day, and the conditions were perfect. Everything was open, amazing glades, high-pitched steeps, and delicious cruisers. The high-speed quad allowed access to challenging terrain and Owl's head doesn't prevaricate when they rate a trail, no grading inflation. The black diamonds were REALLY black diamonds. The Blues were really blues. We found this ski area to be a perfect place for a family. The cafeteria is well suited and has some very good dishes. Lots of room downstairs to change and store belongings. Outstanding views from the terrace overlooking the slopes. And the mountain Our concerns were first, the lack of signage, especially at the intersection of blacks and double blacks where someone could make a serious mistake. Second, there were no large map displays at top of lifts except in one lift serving blues and greens. And the guest services desk had no maps, just Xerox copies of their website map that was hardly readable. Lastly, neither the ski shop nor the guest service had any type of sourvenirs, stickers etc. With such an outstanding mountain, they're losing valuable profits..... Overall, worth a trip from the States, and when combined with the other three resorts in the Eastern Townships and the amazing town of Magog, full of life, restaurants and one superb microbrewery, this area merits an entire vacation.
