Fun Valley ski area, Iowa

they just shut down..... says an anonymous skier.

This ski mountain has a comparatively modest array of runs and enough ski lifts to serve them all. The 14 ski runs at this ski area are gorgeous. A 240 foot vertical drop is of course not that much, but Fun Valley makes up for it by other means. This is a cozier than average ski resort featuring a drop from top to bottom that's in the order of average compared to other mid west ski resorts. This ski area has 5 great ski lifts, and they will get you up the slope

    well. The skiing and the snowboarding in this region is scores of fun through the winter. Having 30 acres of skiable territory, it's exceptionally likable and petite. Fun Valley has the largest altitude difference among ski resorts in a 98 mile radius. This ski
hill gets blanketed by 3 feet of fluffy snow annually, and that doesn’t sound like a lot, but it's pretty all right. This ski hill obtains less snowfall than the local average each winter. Fun Valley has a much lower than average proportion of black and red slopes and a much higher than average share of blue and green runs. Some people prefer skiing and some snowboarding, either way, in this general region, you won't bump into many other ski mountains. The ski map of Fun Valley on this internet page unsurprisingly says

a thousand words. Getting your skiing muscles activated and just hanging out with your skiing pals attract snow folks from far and near. This is a wonderful place for the whole family with loads of blue and green trails for beginners. This is a popular ski hill for skiers from Oskaloosa.
