The cow, to honor the Boulanger family
Installed in 2016 on the Chalet Alt. 680 m, the cow is a tribute to the old dairy factory owned by the Boulanger family, the founders of Mont SUTTON. This sculpture was offered by the CLD de Brome-Missisquoi to outline the huge contribution of the Boulanger family regarding the touristic and economic developments of the Sutton and Brome-Missisquoi region.
