There are plenty of terrific groomed ski trails in Minnesota state parks and state forests, but remember you'll first need to get a ski pass if you are 16 or older.
A friend of mine recently was driving with her family in Central Minnesota when they spotted what appears to be an Amish man "ditch skiing" behind a horse drawn buggy.
In a crazy year like 2020, one thing that remains important is getting outside and getting exercise so it's perfect timing to have Mont du Lac ready to open their ski hill.
Starting Friday, Spirit Mountain will be hosting their 48th Annual Ski Swap. It's the perfect opportunity to get the family geared up for the ski season.
