Nub's Nob Terrain
Nub's Nob has 3 distinct areas, the original Nub's Nob, Nub's Nob South and Pintail Peak. The front of original Nub's Nob is some of the top expert and advanced skiing in the Great Lakes. Chute, Scarface and Twilight Zone stare down at skiers from the main parking lot. All of the original slopes cut in 1958 are a part of the north facing front slopes. To the north the tall towers of The Mackinac Bridge are visible 30 miles away! Over the top of original Nub's
Nob is Nub's Nob South. Tree-lined and gladed, beginner to intermediate, beautiful long trails wind through northern woods with views of Lake Michigan serviced by 2 triple chairs. Past Nub's Nob South you'll find Pintail Peak over a mile from the base area! Hailed at one time as "Michigan's best terrain expansion of the last decade" Pintail Peak features intermediate and advanced slopes, varying fall lines, a quad and a new triple chairlift and huge warming house with Lake Michigan views, restrooms and food service.
