Snowy Range Ski Area is a small, approachable ski hill in Medicine Bow National Forest, a few miles west of Centennial. It is not Jackson Hole, and that is a virtue: prices, scale, and atmosphere are gentler, with terrain that works well for families and casual skiers.
For travellers based in Laramie, it makes Centennial a winter destination rather than only a summer byway stop. Check operating days and weather before driving up, because storms can change road conditions quickly.
