I'm going to UW-Stevens Point next year and I was wondering how the skiing is up there at Granite Peak. Do you have enough time to ski a good amount throughout the season? and is there any form of transportation from Stevens Point to Rib Mountain?

Alright. I used to go to UWSP before dropping out last year and moving to CO, but I can tell you that Granite is the best park in the Midwest, and is 25 minutes from campus. As far as riding time goes, that depends on how you schedule your classes. But if you load up on certain days, you'll have plenty of time to ride. As for rides, there is no ride share or school transportation there. There are however, a bunch of kids that attend UWSP that are great shredders that could hook you up with a ride. Matt Kretzschmar ( @Krotch ) goes there now, also if you feel like looking them up on Facebook, Simon Stevenoski, Michael Altobelli, Mitch Holtz, Adam Nicks, just to name a few. Hope that helps

Thanks man! It sounds like a nice gig, I will definitely check them out. I bet CO is a great time, I plan on getting out there someday too.

Yeah, they're all nice people. CO is pretty great, becoming a powder hound. But if you ever need a floor space to crash on, let me know. We just charge a small amount for utilities.

I would like to know why they don't change it up more often. Troll does a great job.

We buried them 3ft into the ice. It's a pain in the ass to change them. But it's not my problem anymore haha. They could do a better job for sure. Troy will have to learn
