Because Michigan ski resorts are some of the most popular in the mid-western United States, it is time to make reservations at the famous ski lodges for the winter and spring holidays. Remember that Michigan has a long ski season usually starting around Thanksgiving and extending to mid-March. In Michigan, there are ski resorts in the southeastern and southwestern regions of the State for convenient and quick afternoon or evening ski breaks after school and work. The northern Lower Peninsula and Upper Peninsula ski resorts offer both Alpine and Nordic skiing and lots of interesting entertainments like spas, restaurants, shops, and swimming pools. Generally, the ski resorts in the northern regions have the longest ski seasons, extending farthest into the spring.
Rather than searching out the mountains of the eastern or western states, mid-western skiers can cross the International Bridge at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan and find some very challenging Nordic skiing. After a full day of skiing, they can go back over the bridge and spend an evening gaming at the casinos near Sault Ste. Marie.
Cross-country skiing through the national forests in Wisconsin and Minnesota is breathtaking. Minnesota also has some interesting downhill skiing available in the north. Other states east of the Mississippi River that have interesting and popular ski resorts are Pennsylvania, New York, especially around the Adirondack Mountains, Vermont, Massachusetts, New Hampshire in the White Mountains, and Maine. Interestingly, the Appalachian Mountain region, depending on the harshness of the winters, has skiing through the Carolinas.
The eastern Canadian provinces, especially Ontario and Quebec, have both Alpine and Nordic skiing. Because the provinces are in the northern latitudes, the ski seasons are long. In the west, Rocky Mountain ski resorts in Alberta and British Columbia are very challenging. Some skiers love to go to Jasper, Alberta to take helicopters and be dropped onto the mountains to ski on the fine powder.
Skiing is at its best in the western states including, Colorado, Montana, Wyoming, California, Oregon, and Washington. The ski resorts in Colorado, Montana, Wyoming, and California are world renowned with long ski seasons. Some say the spring skiing in the west is the best! Alaska also has some interesting skiing.

Serious skiers like to travel to the Alps or Scandinavia in Europe or go to the Andes in the summer to continue skiing year-round. |
