The best small mountain ski resort feel with amazing terrain, especially when it dumps snow which it does a lot there! Very affordable and a great break from the hectic mess of the big resorts. Trade some vertical feet for a more peaceful, laid back, and high snow producing mountain.

We go to Wolfecreek every year. This year they hadn't had snow recently and the temps had been warmer than usual. Despite this the runs were well covered and groomed. It was and always is great!
