Caberfae is excited to announce the purchase of a new, fixed grip chairlift, scheduled to open for the 27/28 ski and snowboard season. The new Green Mountain Triple Chair will open access to additional terrain that is designed to better serve novice skiers and riders.
The Green Mountain Triple marks the resort’s third Doppelmayr chair in just 11 years, reinforcing their continued commitment to reinvest and improve the guest experience. The lift will help bridge a much needed gap from the surface lift to the East Peak Triple Chair, offering a smoother and easier progression for those learning to ski and ride.
“We are thrilled to begin this terrain expansion,” said Manager, Pete Meyer. “Our skiers and riders will now have a dedicated, lift-served area to build confidence and skills before moving on to larger, more challenging slopes.”
The multi-year project includes planning, excavation, and lift-line clearing in 2025, concrete work for the terminal and tower foundations as well as snowmaking installation in 2026, followed by the lift installation in 2027.
“Unlike our previous installations in 2016 and 2022, which replaced aging 1967 Hall Double chairs, this lift adds new capacity, increasing both our overall lift count and skiable terrain,” said Mountain Operations Manager, Tim Meyer. “This expansion improves the experience for skiers and riders of all ability levels and continues our mission of investing where it matters most - on the slopes.” #caberfaepeaks#whatsnew#SkiMichigan...

The South Peak Triple and North Peak Quad lift towers were recently shined up with a fresh coat of paint. It was a long process removing the old and prepping for the new, but the end result has the lift towers looking better than they ever have! #whatsnew#SkiMichigan... See MoreSee Less
Did you know Stonecliffe was once home to the only island ski resort in the world? In the early 1970s, “Mt. Humbard” featured ski jumps, chair lifts, a toboggan run, and even trails with names like the “Hallelujah Trail.” Despite its ambitious vision, the resort only operated for two winters before closing, earning the nickname “Humbard’s Folly.”
A fascinating (and short-lived) chapter in Stonecliffe’s history.

For just $375, you’ll score one of the best deals in skiing and riding: the White Gold Card gives you one lift ticket at each participating ski area across Michigan. That’s a ton of fresh turns, endless memories, and unbeatable value packed into one card.
But here’s the catch – quantities are limited and these cards always sell out fast. If you want in on the action this season, don’t wait.

FROM Leelanau Ticker >> Leelanau County’s crown jewel is (finally) ready to shine again. The Leelanau Conservancy announced Thursday that it is acquiring 285 acres of the long-dormant Sugar Loaf Resort property, with plans to reopen the land as a four-season public recreation area. The site will be home to new hiking, biking, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing trails – including a trail to Sugar Loaf’s summit – as well as family-friendly amenities like a sledding hill, a seasonal ice rink, and a native plant garden. #sugarloaf#whatsnew#SkiMichigan...
