EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ – Ahead of its Dec. 5 opening, Big SNOW American Dream released a map of what the indoor ski and snow park will look like.

Big SNOW, which is being billed as North America’s largest indoor ski and snow park, will offer skiing, snowboarding, lessons, private coaching, children’s programming and private events.

Its map shows three trails, ranging from the “Lil’ Dipper” for beginners to a difficult one called “Switchback” to an advanced trail dubbed “Northern Lights.” There is also a lift and play areas, as well as a hot cocoa stand to help warm up from the constant 28 degrees the park will be kept at.
