What I liked: Trails are wooded, fairly gentle hills. I have brought several first time skiers here and most of them enjoyed themselves. The folks who were out of shape had a little difficulty. It is a nice quiet place with generally only local folks on the trails. They do a Candle light night ski twice a year which is fun.
What I disliked: I would like higher hills and more trails, who wouldn't. They could be groomed better, but the snowfall has been so poor the last few years it has not been worthwhile for them to groom.
