What's new at six ski resorts 'up north' on the Wisconsin/Michigan border and in Minnesota.
) which is near Upson, Wisconsin — 409 miles from Chicago and 10 miles from the UP border — the resort has renovated some of its hotel and added a magic carpet to its novice area, said general manager Dave Dzubian, who was born in Elmhurst and grew up in Chicago’s western suburbs. He said he hopes to open his slopes in early December.
“We really get dumped on,” he said. “Thanks to the lake effect, we can get storms that bring us 30 to 40 inches of powder, which means skiing and snowboarding in snow up to our chests sometimes. Winds from the north pick moisture up off Lake Superior, move it into the cold atmosphere and then it falls back as snow. We’re very fortunate that way.
“Our claim to fame is that we are the snowiest city in the Midwest and the third snowiest in the entire country,” bragged Sirdenis, who said adult lift tickets this year are $60. The resort, which is slated to open Nov. 25, is 45 miles south of Mount Bohemia, so some skiers and snowboarders coming from the south combine visits to both areas.
