The fact that everyone knows everyone. That's including staff. One of the only perks of a run down ski hill in wisco.

Everyone is like a family. Everyone is pretty local so people you don't know are friends of friends. Also the main park is right under a huge lift that's slow so everyone gets stoked when someone throws down or bails. Pretty damn fun

Holy shit. That's awesome actually.

I'm so used to looking out to see more hills/mountain, not really cities. This pic reminds me a lot of Snowflex and seeing Lynchburg below. Such a sick picture dude.

Hylands chalet is made of mobile trailers this year.
There's no parking lot at the hill, you HAVE to take a shuttle.

Crystal Mountain, MI

we have (or had, idk) the fastest quad chair in the Midwest. not that special considering we only have a 300 foot vertical. Other than that, its a rental skier heaven, they account for like 90 percent of our mountains sales.

Only park that I know of with a double quad chairlift. Pretty cool considering its Ohio. Also saw a ski patrol guy trying to do a 180 with masterminds and squires. His buddy had to give him a sled ride down the lodge.
