Whitecap Mountains
Wisconsin
Take Advantage of the Lake Effect

Click to view all full size images.
Whitecap Mountain is located in the ancient and picturesque Ponokee Mountain Range.

Situated just off the shores of Lake Superior means the resort benefits from the "lake effect snow," averaging more than 200 inches annually.

With 35 trails covering three mountains, novice, intermediate and expert skiers will find a variety of options to ski. Intermediates will enjoy schussing down Grindelwald, and experts will find the bumps of Kilimanjaro a challenge.

Whitecap has a PSIA-certified Ski School offering private and group lessons. A new child care facility for ages 3 to 10 and lessons for ages 4 to 10 are available daily.

The Whitecap Mountains are located just 10 minutes west of Ironwood, Mich., and Hurley, Wis., off Highway 77 on County Road E.
