At Sugarloaf, Maine (USA in case you didn't know)  there is a school called Carabasset valley Academy which is supposed to have a really good freeskiing program. It is on the East Coast though, so it is not a huge mountain and the powder is not as frequent or as good quality as it would be in the west. That is the only place I know about though.

the school system in canada is really good so really good skiing sould be cause i'm not every day or year in canada or america. i think medicore education and really good skiing is the best.
Is there time to go skiing in canada?? or fu** off the school and go skiing or are there big probs if you do that in both countries??ß

cheers

I've got some boarder friends who go to CVA and its fairly small. It's pretty well known for skiing tho, considering kids like Corey Vanular have come out of there. But, being on the EC, I wouldn't expect too much snow. You'd be skiing Sugarloaf regularly, which is a pretty decent mountain in Maine, and fairly decent for the EC, but theres not much variability. Park features are nice, and you do take regular trips out west and to other nice mountains, but if you have the chance to go to a school out West, do it.

it's about 4K for locals, and unless you plan on your whole family moving out here you have to pay 750 a month for a homestay parent.

Waterville Academy is in Waterville, NH.  Such a dope place if your looking to ski a great park and ski with  a lot of other good kids.  It's where Mike Clarke came from!
