As we are selling mainly to Canadians and Americans most of the examples we have done are for North American styles of sign … but if you want the European ski trail sign look then we can do that too. Just mention this on the order.
Tell us the name of the resort & the name of the run and we'll do the rest ... whether it's your most challenging double black run or the bunny hill where you started out or the run you like to cruise the most. The examples shown are from some of our favourites.

MATERIAL CHOICE:
==================
Please remember that wood by its very nature is an imperfect material with natural character and no two pieces are exactly the same as is the case with most things in nature. As with all our signs we will send you a rendering first once we get your order so you can make any corrections ... and then from there it takes only a few days before this is on it's way.
Knotty pine: this is a softer wood with lots of knots and more rustic in appearance ... the knots are where the branches would have grown out of the tree & the wood is both harder & darker where there are knots. The placement of the knots is completely random. Knots are typically darker compared to the surrounding light wood. IF YOU DO NOT LIKE THE NATURAL CHARACTER OF WOOD then either avoid ordering any of our products as they are all made from wood OR stick to maple as it has less variation.
Canadian maple: this is a more expensive species and also this is a denser / harder wood than the knotty pine and has far fewer natural defects such as knots. It has a similar light tone but also cuts a little crisper due to the density of the wood.
PLEASE REMEMBER these are not intended to replicate metal or plastic signs as they will contain some degree of natural character.
****** Remember to check the spelling and punctuation is as you intended when you approve the rendering as it is too late to make changes once approved ******
If you have any questions; as always message us and we will do our best to provide exactly what you are looking for.
## WALL MOUNTING >>> for indoors use our signs are intended to be mounted on the wall or a door or some other vertical flat surface. As of Jan 2022 we will supply metal hangers with all our signs unless advised otherwise (select the appropriate option when ordering your sign). These are the type that slip over 2 screws on the surface so that the sign does not protrude more than about 1/8" from the wall. See the last photo in the product gallery for an example.
## PERIODICALLY DUE TO SUPPLIER SHORTAGES WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THE FREE KEYHOLE MOUNTING HARDWARE ##
