Visitor Reviews of Sugar Mountain


Michael Cooney from UNITED STATES writes:

I've only skied one day here and even though there had been no fresh snow the snow blower did a good job covering the slopes. Some slopes were a little bit icy though. Skiing with the snow blowers on makes you really cold, so I'll dress warmer next time and have goggles and a face mask.
Slope variety is good, but I think they could use a faster chair lift to the top. Lines grew quickly as more people arrived on the Friday afternoon. I can imagine that the main chairlift could have huge lines on a good weekend.
I look forward to skiing here again, but on a weekday.
