One of the 'best kept secrets' piste skiing is limited but the off piste is seriously good. Haven't been there myself but I know a man that has (and he keeps going back).

That's good, I don't like piste skiing a whole bunch.

Ive never stayed in Sainte Foy, but Ive skied a few days there from Tignes and Val D'Isere. Some of the best tree skiing I've done anywhere. And the mountain restaurants are great too.

Neiltoo, have you been anywhere in North America?

I worked 2 winters in Banff about 6 years ago. Never skied in the states though.

And the tree skiing is better than Paradise/Ptarmigan trees? If so I am getting properly excited.

I think so!
My only problem with Canada is the whole concept of 'out of bounds'

I should say that every day that I've skied S'te Foy it was dumping with snow - that was why we went ... cos the visibility was crap elsewhere.
So that may have influenced my opinion somehow :)

I ve also finished up in S'te Foy after heli skiing from La Thuile ( a whole lot cheaper than Canada and if the snow is good the skiing is superb.)
