Pure Michigan knows how to present our Michigan winters in the best light.  I happen to love the outdoors and winter fun.  Every Saturday morning at 7 am I was on a bus bound for a local ski resort for ski lessons with my 5 brothers and sisters.

Mount Brighton which is the closest ski hill for us in Ann Arbor was home to many ski outings for me.  I was on the volunteer ski patrol while in the Blizzard Ski Club and continued patrolling at Blue Mountain in Ontario.

For years we have enjoyed snowmobiling at Higgins Lake and always brought a large can of chunky soup to heat over a camp fire for lunch.  There are many trails.  Once when they were building I75 in Roscommon, we had amazing hills and ditches to glide on and jump.  The next year the road was operational so our playground was off limit.

From our door, we can slap on the boards to cross country or mountain bike in Stinchfield Woods. I think the best tubing around is at Vet’s Park.  Let me know what you enjoy about our local winter fun and your favorite tubing spot.

We are here to welcome you and your family to Ann Arbor.  Let us show you Ann Arbor Area housing options.
