    Lutsen Mountains Review

    Pros: Weather, Terrain, Conditions

    Cons: Lift lines, price, congestion

    What the weather service said was going to be a bad day on the slopes, turned out to be amazing. Rain and wind were projected, and neither surfaced at Lutsen today. The... Full review

    Lutsen Mountains Review

    Pros: Varied terrain, great old-school ski atmosphere

    Cons: Old lifts, congested lift lines, narrow-minded staff

    I'm amazed that there haven't been more reviews of Lutsen...probably the greatest ski area in the Midwest (with a few catches). This weekend my eyes were opened even wider to how great... Full review

    Spirit Mountain Review

    Pros: Great night skiing, good lift system

    Cons: Weather is at the mercy of Lake Superior

    Spirit Mountain--just like all the other resorts in the Midwest--is suffering. I guess we took that early-season snowfall for granted. But since then, we've been blanked...I think we're going on two months... Full review

    The Canyons Review

    Pros: Amazing snow days after storms in some areas

    Cons: Very expensive

    The only way I ski The Canyons is when it's free. That's not to say that the place sucks, it's just that it's too expensive for my blood. At $77 a ticket,... Full review

    Brighton Resort Review

    Pros: A little-known backcountry gem

    Cons: Tons of snowboarders

    I skied Brighton on February 8th. We had been treated to 8" the night before, and 9" this morning. There was a terrific base out there already, and now 18" of fresh.... Full review
