Bromont's summit reaches 516 metres, dropping 351 vertical metres to a base at 165 metres across 143 runs spread over roughly 182 hectares in the Eastern Townships, Quebec. Terrain splits 37 per cent intermediate, 22 per cent advanced, 21 per cent beginner and 20 per cent expert, with average annual snowfall of roughly 3.5 metres. Twelve lifts, including six quad chairs, two double chairs and one gondola, serve the mountain alongside three surface lifts.
Bromont holds the distinction of operating the largest illuminated skiable area in North America, with 100 trails lit for night skiing supported by 99 fan guns and nearly 1,500 snowmaking poles across every slope. Its considerable proximity to Montreal, combined with this extensive night-skiing infrastructure, has built Bromont's reputation as a genuine four-season destination rather than a purely daytime ski hill.
Roland Désourdy envisioned and developed Bromont as a model resort community, founding the resort in 1964. His son Charles Désourdy has never missed a season skiing at Bromont since it opened, having worked as the resort's evening ski and snowmaking manager during the 1981-82 season before becoming president in 1998.
Under Charles Désourdy's leadership, snowmaking has become a central element of the mountain's operations, supporting the resort's considerable night-skiing scale. Bromont's exact current pass affiliation is not confirmed in available resort information. The resort welcomes close to 800,000 visitors annually and employs more than 1,300 people as a four-season operation. Adult daily tickets run from 72 to 85 Canadian dollars.
Bromont spreads 143 runs across 450 acres skiable of terrain. It leans intermediate at 37%, with 30 beginner runs to find your feet and 60 advanced or expert runs when you want to push.
The 2025-26 season at Bromont ran from 27 November 2025 to 12 April 2026, a roughly nineteen-week season supported by average annual snowfall of around 3.5 metres and extensive snowmaking coverage across the resort's 100 lit trails. Season dates can shift depending on early and late-season weather in the Eastern Townships.
Midwinter, from December through February, typically brings the most consistent conditions to Bromont's varied terrain. Given its considerable proximity to Montreal, roughly 45 minutes away, Bromont draws substantial visitation from the metropolitan area, particularly for evening skiing.
Bromont's night-skiing programme continues to draw strong weekday evening visitation throughout the season, supported by comprehensive snowmaking across every slope. School holiday periods bring substantial family visitation given the resort's varied terrain and four-season amenities.
Specific event programming beyond standard operations is not confirmed in available resort information. Since Roland Désourdy's 1964 founding, Bromont has continued building on six decades of history under family ownership, now led by his son Charles Désourdy. The resort's night-skiing scale and considerable Montreal proximity remain central to its enduring popularity.
Bromont sits in the Eastern Townships, Quebec, with a base elevation of 165 metres and a summit at 516 metres across a 351-metre vertical drop over roughly 182 hectares. This setting places the resort within a comparatively short drive of Montreal, among the more accessible major resorts in southern Quebec.
The town of Bromont itself, developed alongside the resort as a model community, offers lodging, dining and services directly at the mountain's base.
Autoroute 10 provides direct access to the resort from Montreal. Winter driving conditions on this route can include snow and ice, though the well-travelled highway is regularly maintained given the resort's considerable visitor volume.
Montreal-Trudeau International Airport, roughly a one-hour drive away, is the primary gateway for visitors flying into the region, with Bromont's considerable proximity to Montreal supporting substantial day-trip and evening visitation from the metropolitan area.

Brian Head is targeting 6 November, though last year it aimed for 7 November and did not open until the 25th. Park City, Alta and Solitude are pencilled in for 20 November, Snowbird and Snowbasin for 27 November, and Deer Valley for 5 December. Eagle Point will stay closed after the Cottonwood Fire. A super El Niño is forecast, but the big snow is not expected until January.

Hintertux became Austria's second glacier to open for 2026-27 on Friday 2 October, after the Pitztal Glacier. Twelve kilometres of piste are running around the Olperer and Gefrorene Wand, served by one gondola and two drag lifts, with the Betterpark also open. Lifts officially run 8:15 am to 4:30 pm, but skiing stops at 2 pm for now.

A historically poor western winter cut Vail Resorts' annual net income from $280 million to $147.5 million and skier visits by 13.4 per cent. Now 2026-27 pass units are down 12 per cent as of 18 September, worse than the 10 per cent flagged in spring. Vail blames the weather and thinks some buyers are simply waiting, and it forecasts a rebound if the snow behaves.

Arizona Snowbowl advertised eight $1 lift ticket days this winter. Go looking and only three are showing - 10 March, 1 April and 10 April - so the rest may already have gone. The consolation is a calendar full of $9 days, including all but one day in April. Opening day is 20 November, weather permitting, and opening weekend is $19.

For years, Whitewater's Short Side was where you ducked a rope and hoped for the best: unmapped, ungroomed and unpatrolled. This winter it's inbounds. Six new runs of glades and fall-line skiing add 190 acres (about 77 hectares), taking the resort past 1,400 acres in total. F2 Logging spent a month in the trees to make it happen, and opening day is pencilled in for 4 December. Bonanza now needs less snow to groom, too.

Mammoth got its first snow of 2026-27 on Monday 28 September - and promptly lost it by Tuesday morning. Barely an inch fell at McCoy Station, but with opening day pencilled in for Friday 13 November, it's the first sign the Sierra is waking up. Last year's date slipped from 14 November to 20 November, so nobody's booking flights on a dusting just yet. Here's where California's early openers stand.

Four connected areas, 70 lifts and a World Championship course, yet Saalbach Hinterglemm still runs like a family holiday. Two days on snow and a Worlds Super-G later, here is who it suits, what the Ski ALPIN CARD covers and why Epic Pass holders should pay attention. Big on blues, light on steeps.

Sölden's World Cup opener has been two giant slaloms on the Rettenbach glacier for as long as most fans can remember. From 2027/28 it could be four. Director Jack Falkner wants to add two Super-Gs, backed by a nod from Vincent Kriechmayr, and turn the opening into a full week where the ski world gathers in the Ötztal. FIS and the ÖSV are yet to sign off. This year, it's still just the two GS races on 24 and 25 October.
