Whitecap Mountain - Informazioni turistiche
This four-season resort is located in the heart of the ancient Penokee Mountains. It is one of Wisconsin's largest ski resorts with a vertical drop of 400 feet and skiing and riding available on 400 acres. Choose from among Whitecap's three mountains: Thunderhead, Eagle's Nest, and the Whitecap Mountain. Thirty-six trails/runs offer a variety of options to match all ability levels. It's one of the few Midwestern ski areas where you will actually need a trail map to navigate the three mountains. Eagle's Nest is one of the great heartland cruising mountains. There are six chairlifts, a Magic Carpet for beginners, and two lifts on the "bunny bowl" that carry over 7,000 skiers an hour. The Austrian-style ski village receives over 200 inches of snow yearly.
{EN=The spring-fed mountain lake offers fishing for trout or bass; or, try your hand at pan-fishing. Those who want to fish for walleye, northern pike or muskellunges, can choose from Saxon Harbor on Lake Superior, 12 miles away, or "Gile Flowage," 10 miles away. Don't want to fish? Try hiking, biking, horseback riding, golfing on the resort's new 18-hole championship course or at the driving range, kayaking on Lake Superior or exploring caves. }
