Mont Sutton plans to revitalize its educating facet of the mountain in 2026 with a hard and fast grip quad from Skytrac. The brand new elevate will exchange three getting old Mueller doubles and turn into the primary Skytrac in Quebec. The information marks a major milestone as Doppelmayr dominates the Quebec market and its 75 ski areas (extra mountains than some other Canadian province or US state.) Skytrac’s enlargement into Canada has been measured up to now with the primary Monarch in Canada debuting in 2018 and three initiatives following at Searchmont, Ontario in 2020, 2021 and 2022. The Leitner-Poma subsidiary has but to construct any lifts in Western Canada.
Sutton’s new elevate will load close to the primary chalet and transport 2,400 skiers per hour. It’s going to function a loading conveyor and enormously enhance the training expertise for newbies and intermediates. As a part of the mission, Mont Sutton will transfer an current conveyor elevate, add a second conveyor, implement RFID gates and enhance snowmaking across the new chair. The CA$8 million elevate mission, funded partly by the Authorities of Quebec, represents the most important funding within the resort’s 65 12 months historical past. “This announcement is the fruits of the planning work of all of the groups over the previous few years,” famous Jean-Michel Ryan, President and CEO of Mont Sutton. “The Skytrac quadruple chairlift, because of the standard of the general proposal made by Poma Canada, meets all of the important standards sought by Mont Sutton.” Building is anticipated to begin in spring 2026 and be full in time for the 2026-27 ski season.
