Sundown Mountain
Many years ago, a few avid skiers searched three states for an ideal ski and winter sports site. Only sites with high elevation changes and scenic environments were considered. The site chosen was a century-old cedar forest with a vertical matched by only two ski areas in all of Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri and Minnesota, from Duluth to St. Louis.
Since 1973 Sundown has focused on preserving the natural winter beauty of the mountain, and on snowmaking and grooming to provide the best possible ski conditions. The founding skiers are on the slopes every day all winter long to see that the beauty and snow conditions are the best they can be. In 1989 the National Ski Area Association awarded Sundown the Award of Excellence. No other midwest ski area has received this award. Sundown is a Mountain of fun and excitement.
