Profile
Skibowl says it's the largest night skiing area in the country. There's also a tubing hill, including a Toddler Tube Hill, and an Express Tube and Tow only for the brave at heart.
Lodging
Skibowl is actually in the town of Government Camp, so there are several lodgings within walking distance. They include a B&B, chalets, lodges, and inns.
Recreation
K-2 Snowbikes are now available for rent, (including Snowblades) for zooming down the hill. Mini Z Snowmobiles, for children over 5 and under 120 pounds, can be rented and run only on a supervised track. Skibowl now has what it calls the High Adrenaline Zipline. It???s 500 feet long and 40 feet above the ground. You descend from Multorpor Lodge, zooming all the way down to the bottom of Skibowl east parking lot (weight limit 60 to 240 lbs).
