This will be a“GREAT” warm-up trip for Zell am See and Zermatt, Utah. Many of us can remember our last year’s trip to Marquette Mountain and it is our belief that this is one of the best places in the Midwest to ski. Marquette Mountain offers skiers and boarders a wide range of terrains to enjoy. No matter what skill level a person is at, the mountain provides something for everyone, with easy, moderate and difficult runs to satisfy the beginner

and the expert. With a top elevation of 1,357 feet and a vertical of 600 feet, it is one of the Midwest’s highest mountains and one of the most challenging in both Michigan and Wisconsin.  It features 25 runs, three chairlifts and one paddle tow, 169 skiable acres and over 210 inches of snowfall annually. For those looking to practice their ski jumps and boarding tricks, Marquette Mountain provides three terrain parks with hits, rails and trails for all skill levels. In the coming season, Marquette Mountain expands its backcountry runs, adding seven new trailheads.

Accommodations are at the Ramada Inn in downtown Marquette with swimming pool, whirlpool, sauna, restaurant, and lounge.  Enjoy a night at the Flannigan Pub across the street from the Ramada. Can’t go wrong with cheap beer, live band, and Karaoke!

The bus will depart on Friday afternoon and return Sunday evening.
