Ski Brule
      Overview Resort Statistics Lift Statistics Trail Statistics Other Services Contact Info Directions

Ski Brule provides the best possible snow conditions at all times. Ski Brule is known for the longest season in the Midwest. On average, Ski Brule's season is six months! That's almost a month longer than the average Rocky Mountain season and three months longer than the average Midwest season.

Ride Ski Brule's 30 Acre Snowboard Arena & ½ Pipe. Snowboarders are welcome on all of our trails. Rapids and Snowshoe Trail offers the best ½ pipe, table tops, spines, whales and ¼ pipe that can be found anywhere. Terrain is maintained with a Pipe Dragon, the latest technology in snowboard terrain grooming equipment. Ski Brule's variety of terrain is ideal for beginning riders, season veteran and anyone in between.

Homestead Lodge. The Homestead Lodge, settled in 1891 under our Nations Homestead Act, is one of the many highlights at Ski Brule. Located mid-mountain and accessible from Homestead and North Forty Trails, the Homestead Lodge is a great place to relax, grab a bite and watch the slopes. The Homestead Lodge stands alone among areas with its unique combination of warm, cozy atmosphere and smiling friendly folk. Settled under the Homestead Act in 1891 by the Oberg family, much of the log structure remains in its original state.
