It's been decades since skiing here in my college days (then known as Clift's Ridge). I forgot how high and steep the runs at this mountain are. Yeah, it's been a record snow year in Marquette, but being this far north and right against Lake Superior...this area is almost guaranteed to have snow. And the grooming crew and equipment seem to be rock starts, all the main runs were in awesome shape every morning.The $25 a day lift ticket is a steal. I got in 2 hours of runs on Sunday morning and didn't feel at all guilty of wasting money. The only lift lines of any sort were on Saturday afternoon for a couple of hours of a race weekend....otherwise ZERO lift lines. The only knock on the place might be that the lodge is tired and needs some updating. But, downtown Marquette is like a 10 minute drive away, and if this was some fancy resort the prices and crowds would just go up. Marquette Mountain is a hidden gem....that I hope stays hidden because I plan to come back every year.
