Cascade

Cascade, a modest hill in Wisconsin, offers a compact experience. With 450 feet of vertical, it’s well-suited for those newer to sliding snow or seeking a quick jaunt rather than a grand expedition. The 176 skiable acres, graced with 80 inches of annual snowfall, provide a friendly playground.

For the touring sort, Cascade makes for a logical stop on a Wisconsin circuit. Its proximity to Devil’s Head, a mere 10 miles distant, suggests a pleasant, short hop between the two. One might drive from Cascade to Whitetail Ridge as well, adding another local flavor to the journey, all within a brief drive.

As an independently operated establishment, Cascade does not appear on any of the common multi-mountain passes. Therefore, one should plan to purchase tickets directly, a straightforward transaction in keeping with the place’s uncomplicated nature.
