What’s New Wednesday at #caberfaepeaks

Quality vs Quantity - Our trail count is now down to 27 from 30. The skiing & riding has greatly improved with clearing some existing trees and planting over 150 trees in other locations, resulting in less cross traffic and more tree lined runs. Gum Drop & Candy Cane are now part of Easy Street. Smiling Irishman now runs top to bottom. Old and new trail map pics are included… #whatsnew #SkiMichigan
