Skiing in (Almost) All Weather

Stuff We Love

When the snow falls, you can find snowshoe and cross-country trails just about everywhere. But what do you do when Mother Nature doesn’t send the white stuff our way? The answer: Head to Forbush Corner Nordic Cross Country Ski Center in Frederic. Our friends at Northbound Outfitters in Grayling let us in on a not-so-secret secret, which is that Forbush Corner has Olympic grade snowmaking equipment so that winter sports enthusiasts can be out skiing their loop all winter long. (And, come next spring, they’re hoping to add mountain bike trails!) Day passes range from $10-$18 for skiers and $2 for snowshoers. Rentals are also available for $5-$25 if you don’t have your own gear. Check out their webcam for snow conditions and get the scoop on the nonprofit’s programs, including ski school, at forbushcorner.com.
