Owl's Head in the shadow of Jay Peak

The mountain is situated in the small town of Mansonville in Estrie, 30 min north of Jay Peak Vermont. From Montréal is 1h30 at east by highway 10.

Mountain info:

The top of the Owl's head is at 747m, the vertical drop is 540m, 8 lifts and 44 wonderful trails with lake view when you are on the slopes. The mountain olso glades skiing in a area name ponsoon. The next video was take in decembre 8 during a snowstrom. As you can see it was the best condition to used our Rossignol Bandit in the powder.


It was a perfect ski day, no crowds, a big mountain and powder. Habitually from my house to the mountain i have 3h to drive but on december 8 it take 5h for the same road. That's part of the game for a powder day. Each week of winter we watch the weather forcast in search of snow, spot a mountain and jump in my car( as i said skiing is a way of life ).
