Skiing in fog can be an eerie experience. It can make a familiar hill seem foreign and give you a feeling of skiing at a new place. In the fog if you don't feel like you have the slope to yourself, you at least feel more anonymous. If you are really lucky, you can ski in an inversion: where the bottom of the mountain is in the fog, but the top is above the clouds. You end up standing in the sunshine looking down on the tops of the clouds. Unfortunately this doesn't happen often in Michigan at 400 ft!
