Nordic Mountain Ski Area

Really nice ski area in mid-​central Wisconsin. First came here in the late 1990’s with my scout troop on a ski trip (went several years in a row) and I’ve been hooked on this ski hill ever since. They may not have the most runs or have the longest runs, but they’re all fun and unique. My favorite trail is Memory Lane, which is about a mile long.
Staff is also very friendly and prices are decent. To this day I still take a long weekend and drive the 5 hours to Nordic once a year.

Oh my goodness… I have not laughed that hard in a long time. GO TUBING HERE! We were in the Wautoma area and decided to «hit the slopes”– just kidding– I am not a skier but my friend told me that they have tubing. I thought it sounded fun albeit alittle boring. Quite the opposite, my friends. This was 20 times better than my attempt at downhill skiing. The hill is HUGE with several jumps. You can link together with your friends– 3 or 4 max– so you really get going. There is a «lift» that takes you up the hill— so don’t worry you can save your energy for screaming your head off as you roar down the hill at lightening speed!
I kept thinking of the scene when Clark Griswold in Christmas Vacation flips up his hat and say «Later Dudes» as he flies down the hill on his crisco-​smeared saucer. Good times.
Oh, they also have a bar here called Nordies which is kind of fun to hang out on the porch and watch the downhill skiers (the tubing is in a different area but the same property).

Had a great time tubing here with a group of friends. This was my first time going tubing as the thought of flying down a hill in a rubber floaty didn’t exactly appeal to me.
Definitely glad I went! It wasn’t nearly as scary as it sounds and I got mad air! (do people still say that?) Lots of kids as you can imagine but that didn’t stop the great time. You pay $ 14 for two hours and you just try to get in as many runs as you can before your time is up.
I suggest linking with your friends for one big group tube chain. fun! and you get the gang back in line quickly for another run.
Dress warm (think waterproof) and don’t eat too soon before hitting the hill or you might regret it.
