Looking for a ski/snowboard resort with a little something unique? How about pistes that pass under an expressway? Saint Mary’s unusual yet convenient location makes it a day-trip destination popular with locals. The resort also features a terrain park with a rotating variety of features, changed to suit the season and snow conditions.
During the green season, guests can enjoy the Summer Galenda, a snow-free piste made of plastic brush mats meant to emulate the feel of real snow. These “plastic snow” mats are designed for use with regular skis and snowboards—no special equipment needed!
