Gladstone Ski Park ski area, Michigan

| | I skied here as a kid. I remember it was pretty small. Good for kids. says Diane.
This ski resort has a much lower than average percentage of advanced and expert ski trails and a much higher than average ratio of blue and green trails. You have to go 40 miles to get to a ski area having a fuller-size vertical drop. Having 5 acres of terrain, it makes for a friendly skiing experience. Gladstone Ski Park has a small collection of trails and enough lifts to serve them all. The yearly snowfall of 4 feet is unsurprisingly |

not world-class, but not too bad either. Gladstone Ski Park is a relaxed ski mountain, and folks who work there are very pleasant. The 200 foot drop from top to bottom is naturally not that much to talk about, but all the other delightful features of Gladstone
| | Ski Park compensate for it. Skiing and snowboarding in this part of the country is loads of fun during the winter. Gladstone Ski Park has lighter snowfall than the local average every season. This is a splendid ski mountain for everybody with many blue and green trails for beginners. There are 5 ski lifts here, and they are nicely kept up and managed by pleasant people. This is a more inviting than average ski hill having an average vertical drop compared to other mid west ski areas. The 6 slopes at this ski area are | |

charming. No matter if you're skiing or snowboarding, this region has loads of ski resorts. This is a popular ski hill for skiers from Escanaba. Places to stay are offered in close proximity to the base area, but do reserve a room before you go as it is a very popular destination. The wintertime in Michigan is the most majestic time of the year for snowboarding and skiing.
