Nick Sabol

There are a lot of choices in Michigan but we keep coming back to “The Highlands”. Highest vertical here in the Lp, most skiable/rideable acres. A bunch of parks, crew is very friendly in all areas of the resort. Plenty of non slope activities too. Take a look at the 2030 resort plan and you will understand why it rates so high
