100 Seasons
The Mighty Quay Film
For a century, Mount Norquay has stood as Banff’s first ski hill, a place where generations carved their turns and forged their stories.
Now, as the resort marks its 100th season, The Mighty Quay retraces the footsteps of pioneers who built a community around the mountain, weaving together the past and present in a portrait of resilience and belonging. From rope tows and wooden skis to modern lifts and multi-season adventures, the film captures the spirit of a hill that became a cornerstone of Canadian mountain culture.
