cascademountainlogoLocated:
Cascade Mountain, a recently renovated central Wisconsin resort, is located between Madison and the Wisconsin Dells.

About:
This newly revamped facility offers an improved beginner slope with lift access, remodeled base lodge facilities, an expanded rental shop, and extended hours for weekend skiers. Especially convenient with a location right off Interstate 90/94, this location prides itself on its family atmosphere. Mountain Stats With an average natural snowfall between 50 and 56 inches per year, this Wisconsin ski resort doesn’t have much need for snowmakers—but it has 100% coverage just in case. With a maximum vertical drop of 460 feet, and 160 skiiable acres, it’s a good thing the facility is also equipped with nine lifts: two quad chairs, three triple chairs, two double chairs, one surface lift, and the first high-speed detachable quad chair in the Midwest.
