Wisconsin area ski report: Discount lift tickets are forecast for fun

Girl snowboarding

There are those who dread winter’s upcoming snowfall, and there are those who live for it.

Soon winter will be here in Wisconsin, and skiers and snowboarders can head for the slopes. Whether you ski or ride, area ski hills have something for everyone. Beginners can work on their form on the green runs, while expert skiers take on the challenges of the bumps and jumps. After a day on the trails, enjoy the après ski life with live bands and a frosty beer, or warm up with hot chocolate while you curl up to a toasty fire.

Create a memorable ski vacation with our discount lift tickets to BlackJack ski resort in Bessemer, Michigan. You’ll find new improvements to an old favorite along with unbelievable amounts of lake effect snow. New owners have made BlackJack Ski Resort even better with improvements to the lodge, a new terrain park, and a renewed focus on customer service.

Head out to a local Wisconsin favorite with discount lift tickets to Nordic Mountain near Wild Rose. Local ski bums know Nordic Mountain is a great place to learn, and they now have a new beginner area and lift. The adventurous can shred it up in three terrain parks, or try Nordy’s Narrows, a new black diamond run that winds through the woods.

Here in the Midwest, we may not have the altitude, but we do have the attitude.  Whether your family is skiing or snowboarding, staying close to home means affordable fun for everyone.

Think Snow!
