Ride Delaware ? Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 I had such a great trip to Canada last season, that I decided to try it again this season. After going last year solo, I was finally able to get Afroman to get his passport and join me. We left Sugarbush this morning at about 8 AM. We weren’t in a rush since it was going to be a mellow day with Afroman getting his legs back under him after two years off his board. We arrived at the border at about 10:30, and since Afroman had never been to Canada, we waited about 20 minutes for them to do a more in-depth check on him. After getting the go ahead, we arrived at Bromont, booted up in the parking lot, and were on the snow at 11:45. Despite it being Quebec vacation week, we found the crowds to be minimal, barely waited in a lift line, and we were able to get discounted lift tickets online. The mountain is pretty expansive and offers over 100 runs ranging from beginner to expert. It also has several t2b high speed lifts and several fixed grips. The lifts are strategically placed to disperse crowds and connect seamlessly with other trail pods. The temperature was in the mid 30’s and there was plenty of granular to go around. We mostly stuck to the green and blue stuff until the last couple of runs when Afroman was feeling adventurous enough to hit some black diamonds. We ate lunch at the lodge on the backside of the mountain. It was delicious and affordable, especially with the current exchange rate. After 15 runs, and having a 3 hour drive up north of Quebec City, we called it quits. Overall, not a bad first day to the Canadian ski trip. As an aside, I was amazed by the scope of the resort at Bromont. It was much larger than expected and had a very classy and well maintained set of lodges and base buildings, while also sporting several hotels and numerous ski houses. I highly recommend if you want a place to stop on the way to MSA or Le Massif. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toast21602 Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 Nice. Never waited at the border of Canada for more than a few minutes. The exchange rate is great. Everything 20% off!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
