Dufferin Mall's famous parking lot snow mountain is back
Like winter itself, the parking lot at Toronto's Dufferin Mall is bleak, sad and very, very dirty. It's also filled with snow thanks to plows who dump their loads in front of Toys R' Us .
Locals have become so used to seeing a large, filthy snow pile outside everyone's favouriteMall With Wifi™ that it's become a meme of sorts in recent years.
They call it "Mount Duff" and it is... well, it's certainly befitting of Toronto's most Instagram-worthy mall (yeah, I said it—Dufferin Mall is more interesting to look at than all of the shiny things in Yorkdale combined).
Some might argue that Mount Duff is at its most iconic in the springtime, when it's covered in black soot and somehowwon't melt.
Others prefer the pile when it's huge and fresh, like after a snow storm blows through through The 6ix.
The hill provides Dufferin Mall shoppers with a challenge...
And a sense of accomplishment upon completing that challenge.
People so love Mount Duff that they bring their children to behold it before they can even walk.
It's even featured in a 2019 calendar of Toronto.
The person behind the belovedDirty Duff Instagram accountactually managed to trade a Mount Duff shrine for a salt lamp over the weekend.
If that isn't cachet, I don't know what is.
With all of the snowfalling upon Toronto right now, Mount Duff is poised to grow even larger in the coming days.
Who will be first to plant a shopping cart at its new peak? Because lord knows this garbagecan't stand:
Enjoy Toronto's most-glorious mountain while you can, fans.
Withnew residential buildings set to take overthe Dufferin Mall's parking lot, its days are likely numbered.
