Where to go skiing?

So I know that horseshoe valley is open, and Ive heard rumours that MSLM will be opening on the 30th. Me and my brother are planning a little roadtrip down from Sudbury to go riding for a day. It would most likely be a Saturday, probably the 1st or the 8th-not sure yet.

Im mostly wondering, where to go? Should I got to MSLM or go to Horseshoe? I dont really care about riding park right now, I just want to get out skiing. I guess if they have a few rails up thats a bonus.

Thanks,

Lyndon

Its about 3 hours to MSLM for me, and just over 3 1/2 to horseshoe.

Yeah, they arent that far appart, seeing how you can see horseshoe from the top of louis.

Anyways, it will be on the 8th for sure. Do you figure the hill will still be decent then? Im most likely going to go to MSLM.

Lastly, does anyone think that loius might have a few rails and a little table set up by then?

yeah sorry bout that, if your choosing between mslm and horseshoe, the skiing will be better at mslm(bigger hill, more dedicated staff to getting snow on the moutain) and better for park(will have more things set up) than horseshoe, in my experience the park and hills at horseshoe aren't very exciting, but thats just my opinion

You sure, last year I went on Janyary the 17th with my school, and the outback was still being blown on, and all they had was a mini park up...

the mslm mini park is pretty much better than most NORMAL parks in ontario (as in parks at resorts that dont really dedicate much time and $ to their park.), whenever they get new things for the outback (big park) they tend to put the old stuff in the 'mini' park.
