It isn't, it's actually double the drop of COP at 220m. It must get jammed when the hordes barrel up the 400 for a Sunday's skiing. Good for a business selling stuff to people in the lift queues

And yes, I wouldn't call it " mountains " either it really isn't more than hills.....but Hey.....they're the only skiable hills in Ontario and easily accessible for GTA folks ( about 4.000.000 of them )

Good luck Juliusmaximus with your move and setting up a business, we have also visited the blue moutains and seen the ski lifts, looks a nice place. All the best

We visited Barrie last year in the summer and have decided we would like to live there, I was wondering since you already live there could you give me any advice about the place - good or bad. I would really appreciate it. Thanks, send me a pm if you like.
