Mountain Layout—Skiing

Half of Timberline skiing is still below tree line and the main lodge, but few experiences in the skiing world match a ride up the Magic Mile Super Express and the Palmer Express to the top of the Palmer Snowfield. The original Magic Mile lift was the second ski lift in the country, after Sun Valley's. Silcox Hut, which served as the original top terminus and warming hut, has been restored and is open to overnight groups.The Palmer Snowfield is for experts only while the middle of the mountain, served by Magic Mile Super Express, is great for intermediates. Beginners will enjoy skiing the lower lifts, Pucci and Victoria Station. Below the Timberline Lodge are many blues and greens, with a few short blacks. The trail system between the trees makes each run feel like a wilderness excursion.

Here's a trail map.
