"Amazing resort with incredible skiing - helped by the huge amount of fresh snow that we had whilst there! - totally incomparable to European skiing and far, far more fun. Huge expanses of slopes ranging from groomed motor-way pistes to powder-drenched gullies. Quiet for the most part at night (both in town and the village)."

"If you like to push your skiing to the limit this is the resort for you. We were there in February 2007 after Presidents Day (17th) so it had quietened down a bit and it snowed every one of our 10-days providing 3 to 6 inches of daily fresh light powder that only north american resorts can provide (helps to make you like a resort). The lift system is well organised compared to Europe and people are polite (makes a change). The new Tram in 2009 will make it even better especially for the more adventurous. The pistes are good and offer a range of challenges. They are often not touched if it has snowed since their early evening prep leaving lovely powder to enjoy first thing. But the resort is really about the tree skiing in between and the back country. The some of the back country can be accessed without hiking but the best stuff does require some effort - but boy is it worth it - but get fit because you will want to keep climbing all day when you start. The resort is also famous for Corbits Couloir which is good but not for the faint hearted and be careful as it can be sketchy at its entrance even when there is fresh snow around. Two personal tips for people visiting the resort. Getting a guide is highly recommended. They will push you as hard as you want and you get a full day. You get up the mountain 30/45mins before the general public and will finish on time if not late. The one very good thing that they do that Europe should follow is making sure you can use your transceiver before taking you into the back-country - they will make you find theirs after they have skiied off and buried it. Something you can never practice enough. After that the skies the limit. Secondly, try the snow-mobiling. Fantastic fun and worth the money - use it as a mid-week break from the slopes. Can do a number of routes. Didn't try it but they offer a two day trip with an overnight stay away from town in a lodge which elongates you time on the machines and from stories heard the evenings are not quiet. The town is the best place to stay and the bus service is very good to and from the ski area. The restaurants and bars are good and there is often two or three evenings of live music at the various bars (a knowledge of country music would do you no harm). Great resort (thanks James for all your help). Go forth and enjoy it! "

"Totally awesome place, great people and great mountain. Forget standing in line for a lift if you don't visit on american national holidays. We were boarding down the hill and straight onto a lift or gondola. Shame tram is gone but they will have a new chair lift to take you right to the top. Go up and have a warming drink in Corbets cabin and look at the couloir. Get to the bottom after the last lift and go and have a meal or a few drinks in the Mangy Moose. Great bar and resturant. Totally amazing place and the town is perfect. Stay in the town and travel to the village as there is much more to do in town at night. "

"Go - for the steepness & the powder! Beware, no tram next year so access to top of mountain may be limited. Great back country but get used to the altitude first before you attempt a hike. "

"Good interesting skiing for experts. Would take a guide next time to access extensive backcoutry areas. Scary signage might put off some from skiing top lift, but really no great deal. "

"Big snow dump on days 2 & 3 ensured 40" snow and good powder. Excellent week's skiing and superb accommn. & service. Well done, Ski Safari. "

"The resort was wonderful. The Americans we met were uniformly charming and friendly. "
