Smuggs Families… Canadian Style!

3 Mountain Logo

Rockin’ Ron for Hugh. I got to ski with some good friends from the Toronto area today. For over 18 years, they’ve been visiting Smuggs in a group of 4 families (or more). Because of college and work, this trip turned into a boys-only week. They tell me they’re behaving. So, we missed seeing Kate, Cynthia, Ciaran, Maeve, Skyler, Julie, Jane, Michelle, Brad, Rory, and Fin. Those who I did ski with are name-checked below.

We had 57 trails open for all varieties. My trail pick was Upper FIS, which was nicely groomed. I also skied 3 miles non-stop: Upper Chilcoot > Waterfall > Ruthie’s > Curley’s > Meadowlark. For Wednesday, we plan to have 6 lifts operating with 58 trails open. Ski ya soon!

When the trees are caked with snow like this, my friend Haylee calls them Dr. Suess Trees.
