Spirit Mountain

Spirit Mountain, located in Duluth, Minnesota, is tucked in between Lake Superior and a towering forested ridgeline, creating long, legendary winters. One of the greatest "surburban" ski areas in the Midwest, Spirit offers a big 700-foot vertical drop, eight lifts including a high-speed quad, 22 runs and two terrain parks spread out over close to 200 acres. Spirit's assests include a sea of some of the finest "blue cruisers" around the Great Lakes and its great views of the city and harbor, as well as the largest terrain park in the midwest. The sprawl of twinkling city lights at night is one of the greatest night skiing views anywhere.
