This December, whether you're traveling far or near, remember that we're here.
Hidden Valley was blessed with early snow, and thanks to some amazing grooming, all main trails are open. We've been skiing since November 12th! The last four inches really smoothed things out. Best skiing is Birch Highlands, Somers, Voyageurs Highway and Varsity Hill.
With the fresh snow we received, Trezona Trails have been groomed. No tracks. Get out and have some fun!
We have received fresh snow here in Ely! Trails have been groomed but no tracks yet. Hanna, Deer Trail, Swamp, and back of Bambas still closed. Still and occasional rock out there. Come out and ski, it keeps getting better and better!

This is the one chance per year to ride the well groomed ski trails at
Hidden Valley. The course has a few punchy climbs and descents as it
winds through the north woods. Same course as the ski tour so you could
enter that to "test" the trail before you ride. The ride starts at dusk so a
headlight is required on your bike or helmet or both. Helmet is required.
Event is timed. No awards. 10k and 20k start together. Finish to food,
bonfire and fun at the Hidden Valley chalet. The 1k will do 1lap and the
20k will do 2 laps.
