Marble Mountain Slopes
It has been called the best skiing in Eastern Canada and anyone who has been skiing or snowboarding at Marble Mountain knows why! The resort lies in a snow belt that gets an average snowfall of 16 feet a year and an average daytime winter temperature of -5 degrees Celsius. Marble Mountain is part of the foothills of the Appalachian Mountain Range, which stretches right up from Georgia in the Southern United States. The summit of Marble Mountain is 1,700 feet above the Humber River, which cuts a winding path through the majestic Humber Valley to the Bay of Islands on Newfoundland's west coast. Trails Marble Mountain offers 35 trails accessible by three quad chair lifts and a platter lift. Crowds are not a problem and short line-ups mean you'll spend less time on the lifts and more time skiing or snowboarding on Marble Mountain. Trails include a terrain park, a half-pipe, seven mogul runs and a glade run. There's a little something for everyone, from the gentle slope of Country Road, to the exhilaration you'll feel when you reach the bottom of the OMJ. All terrain is open to snowboarders as well, including the terrain park and the half-pipe. Lift System Marble Mountain's Governor's Express is the only high-speed detachable quad lift in Atlantic Canada. It's one of four lifts that will carry you up the slopes and the line ups are usually short, which means you'll spend less time on the lifts and more time on the mountain. When planning your Canadian ski vacation this year, choose Marble Mountain Resort for some of the most beautiful scenery and well-maintained ski slopes in Canada.
