Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!

At the end of my article, you will see a quick list of ski resorts in Michigan. (downhill). Leave me a comment if we have any missing - or better yet, add the resort for FREE to our main directory.

Click on the links to get more information, links to official websites, coupons for ski gear and outdoor gear, as well as maps, phone numbers and directions.

This year, there are a slew of new improvements, fun programs and events at the ski resorts and mountains in Michigan. Almost every ski resort that we visited has an inexpensive package for beginners in practically any winter sport you choose.

Give the resort a call, or visit their website to find out packages. Many of the resorts have submitted exclusive coupons for MichiganBusiness.us to post on our website - so be sure to check our Coupon Search also.

Here are a couple of my Michigan Outdoor Sport favorites for the 2007-2008 season:

Boyne Highlands (located in Harbor Springs) instituted dog sled rides last year, and will continue this winter event with hour long dog sled treks this year. It’s a great gift for outdoor lovers - so check this out when planning your vacation.

Shanty Creek has introduced a rewards program for students with good grades. This gives school kids deals on lift tickets when they do well on their report cards.
In their 2007 Readers Resort Poll, the readers of SKI Magazine chose Nub’s Nob as the #1 Terrain Park in all of North America. It is the only time any Midwestern resort has ever topped the rankings in all of Canada and the U.S.
Crystal Mountain is talking up the old school of Telemark skiing. Telemark skiing is a term used for skiing using the Telemark turn, which is a technique first popularized by Sondre Norheim. It is also known as "free heel skiing." Great Deals on Telemark Skiing Gear can be found at BackCountry
