OK, so I figured this question would be answered in this forum, but I've looked through 4 pages and no on has. Anything before that wouldn't be current.
So, to get to the question, I'm taking a trip to Montreal for Igloofest on Thursday-Saturday and want to go skiing one of the days. Question is where to go. I ski in PA, so since I don't get it here I would prefer the place with the best terrain. A decent park would be an added bonus.

 
Basically Bromont, Mont Avila and Tremblant will all offer you good parks.

Tremblant will offer you the biggest selection terrain and it is the biggest mountain with 2116ft of vertical drop with 654 acres to ski on. It is the farthest away and lift ticket price is the most expensive of all of them. I would say 1 hour and 45 minutes from downtown Montreal.

Then for terrain their is Bromont they got a boatload of runs. I have only been their once and I found the tree's weren't that great to ski. It has a vertical drop of 1263ft and 450 acres to ski. The Night skiing here is probably the best around

Mont Avila is connected to Mont Saint Sauver. This hill isn't very tall just wide. Great night skiing though something like 85% of all runs. Vertical drop of 700ft on 142 acres. I wouldn't go here if you want to do some skiing, just for the park. It is only like 40 minutes from downtown though.

Mont Sutton, park is pretty bad. Tree skiing though is just awesome. The lift system is really old, but again the trees are the best. 1500 ft of vertical drop on 175 acres. If you are going here you are just going to ski the trees nothing else. It is about 1 hour 25 minutes from Downtown Montreal.

Well I gave you a brief overview of all the hills/mountain I think are the best. You can research into them a little more and then choose.
 
Bromont are doing insane this year. for early January... 12-13 jib stuff + 5 jumps. I was at Avila for last 3 years but I'll ride both this year, they did an amazing job.
