There’s not just skiing that goes on at Granite Peak, there are a lot of fun events to join in on or just watch.

Looking at a large ice carved snowflake. Hand carved from a block of ice.

Live Ice Sculpting just happened to be the event of the day. It just amazes me how someone can take a solid block of ice and create something so beautiful without it breaking apart.

The night sky lit up by a large show of fireworks!

If your into the night life, they also bring in musicians from a variety of bands and if that’s not enough. Well, then there’s the fireworks! Yes we Wisconsinites love our fireworks, they aren’t just for the 4th of July. They are all year round here, who ever said skiing is boring. Has never been to Granite Peak Ski Hill, so much is always going on.
