Mt. Norquay Overview

Region Wide Comparison
 

Area Profile

Starting with the first ski runs cut in 1926, Mt. Norquay now encompasses a wide variety of terrain and ticket options to suit everyone. Its long-standing reputation for challenge is based on the first runs you see upon approaching the area: a quintet of super-steep, mogul-studded freefalls served by the original Norquay double chair. For hardcore Norquay regulars, no runs anywhere can match Upper Lone Pine and Gun Run, a dynamite black-diamond duo. Memorial Bowl is a generous, consistent swath with an average 34-degree pitch.
