Wonderful hill, with a suprising amount of terrain. I can let me kids ski and know that they have to come back to the lodge. Folks are friendly and it has night skiing on Fridays. More

We attended a USSA ski race here and had a very enjoyable time. It is a small area - but certainly had enough to keep us entertained for the weekend. More
