"The closet significant ski area to the Panhandle and southwestern Kansas, lots of flatlanders head to the hills of Red River for their dose of winter fun. It’s inexpensive, unassuming, and the terrain and snow can be quite good. Almost everyone sticks to the groomers, so a powder day here is a slice of Nirvana for experts, as are crazy-steep tiny pitches, and the rollicking Cat Skinner run. With a chairlift departing just off Main Street, it lives up to its nickname of “Ski Town of the Southwest.”"
