Badger Pass   Badger Pass is the perfect place to learn to ski or snowboard. It has a really long bunny slope, and all the other trails are pretty easy too. The problem is that once you know how to ski without a V-shape thingy the place has little to offer. The staff is very friendly though. Says Bob. All 5 different ski lifts at this ski hill are satisfactorily maintained and run by caring people.
