Loch Lomond - North View

Loch Lomond offers skiing, snowboarding and tubing. We are 10 minutes from Thunder Bay off of Highway 61 North on the magestic Nor'Wester Mountain Range.

Snowmaking

New Equipment - We have increased our snowmaking capacity and acquired a Lenko Airless articulating snow gun designed specifically to snow-in the half pipe.

We pump 1200 gallons/minute from 3 large reservoirs. We installed a mid station pump at the top of the Giant to up our pressure by 200 psi at the top of the mountain to accommodate our new HKD guns. These guns are the top in technology for air/water efficiency. You will see these towering guns all over the mountain in November to January. Mother nature usually takes over with only touch ups required in February and March.
