Wild Corn, Punk Rock Edition: April 4th!
Wild Corn has something for everyone, whether you’re new to uphill touring or a seasoned backcountry enthusiast. This is a total mountain takeover where ALL the lifts are shut down creating a backcountry ski resort for your enjoyment.
The Shindig has it all - endless uphill laps, live music, contests, giveaways, dance parties, great food and drinks, and more. We love to bring the uphill community together to harvest our favorite crop - springtime corn!!

DONATIONS MAKE THE WORLD GO ‘ROUND!
Why are there so many non-profits around? Because funding sources from a municipal, state or federal are more rare than a powder day followed by sustained cold temps to keep things fresh. Non-profits fill the gap that government can’t (or won’t) fund! So, a few dollars can go a long way and will help us with signage, snowplowing, bathrooms, and other expenses, so you and your buds can ski the glades. Try it, it just might feel good!
Granite backcountry developed ski kind in collaboration with winter wildlands alliance, a national non profit representing winter skiers and enthusiasts. For more, check out www.skikind.org

“The key piece to our strategy is to focus not just on the WMNF, but also develop complementary glade options in contiguous areas including state, municipal and third party properties. The underlying rationale is we are digging after something deeper – such as building communities around outdoor winter recreation.”
