Discovery Ski Area is a little place and it rocks. If you like it steep, it's here. Lots of double black diamonds, tree-skiing and a short lift mean tons of vertical every day. If you like the groomed, there is plenty of that too at Discovery Ski Area. Lift lines do not exist here and neither do high speed chairs or restraining bars. The locals are friendly, the nightlife is nonexistent, but its the great skiing at Discovery Ski Area that really matters.
