LAUGHING AT OTHERS is an accepted part of winter fun. Half way up a hill, these three Traverse City lassies paused to watch some one else come down. In the past, winter sports at Traverse City have centered around skating, but the Traverse City Winter Sports Club is beginning to place emphasis on the development of facilities for skiing. One of the reasons for this is that Traverse City, with a wide reputation as a recreation center, receives scores of inquiries from ski enthusiasts in other states who want to come to Michigan for winter sports.

CROUCHED AND READY: Rolling, wooded terrain spreads out in front of the skier who stands at the crest of The Caberfae, in the Manistee National Forest, 17 miles west of Cadillac. The 12 ski runs in this impressive winter sports development range from 800 to 3,000 feet in length, and cover every sort of terrain from steep, twisting trails to broad and gentle slopes. There are also facilities for tobogganing and snowshoeing.
