So, I just moved into Scarborough and I'm wondering where the closest hill is with a decent park. For the most part, I've been hearing that Dagmar and Lakeridge are my best bets within a 30 minute radius, and then MSLM is best within a hour and a half radius. Also, I've been hearing that there is a way to ride the subway and catch a shuttle at a certain station to MSLM? Any helpful information for my cause will be greatly appreciated. +K to good answers. Cheers!

Go to dagmar, they have a pretty legit park setup. MSLM is your best bet, just the drive isnt too good. And no night skiing. Even Glen eden might not be too far.

From Toronto, mslm is the most direct route to get there. It's just major highway all the way there. Dag has a decent park and glen Eden has stepped up the park game this year. I would try to get out to mslm and then maybe hit up horseshoe if you feel like night skiing.

Brimacombe

It's worth the drive, and easy to get to.

Soo, judging that Dag and Lakeridge are probably the resorts that most people from toronto go to, I'm gonna go ahead and say that their season passes are expensive. Am I correct?

 

[skiskate]

Yeah basically, a full day season pass at dagmar was above 500 the last time I had one.

Brimacombe is easy to get to from Toronto, not much further down the 401 and is bigger. Our Student full memberships are $390.

Ok, thank you sir. Brimacombe will now likely be my new home mountain because I dont have Five hundred bucks but I do have around two fifty. I'll just see if my grandparents will fill the void. And if I'm not mistaken, Brimacombe is the same thing as Kirby, correct?

 

[kootenayklaus]

whereabouts is Glen Eden and an estimation of time from Scarborough?

 

[stickerman]

milton, just about 35 mintes west of toronto.

it would probably take you an hour to get there

Brimacombe is a Not-For-Profit club, (Oshawa Ski Club) fully open to the public. We have often been called Kirby but that has never been our name....we are just east of the little town of Kirby.

You won't regret it.

less. my gf lives in guelph, and it takes me 1 hour on the highway with no traffic to get there (from whitby)...but keep in mind thats with no traffic and speeding moderately.
i dont know what their park is like, but i can say daggy would be a great bet, the park is money this year. come by and say meow!
