Amazing place! Walter who was just adorable who’s been there and grooms 20miles of the 30 himself- from meeting him in the little lodge where you can rent skis boots and poles with his wonderful giant wood burning stove and then enter the pine filled trails- its basically just storybook perfection and I can’t wait to be a regular character in!! So amazing and beautiful!

They have beautiful, windy trails through the woods. They're fun, and it's rarely crowded. That said, the trails are much more rugged than some of the bigger ski areas. But the price is right, and it's so near to the Capital's urban areas. Staff is friendly and helpful.
