Frost Fire
Location in northeastern North Dakota

Frost Fire Ski and Snowboard Area is a modest alpine ski area in the midwestern United States, in the Pembina River Gorge of northeastern North Dakota. Located in eastern Cavalier County, it is 7 miles (11 km) west of Walhalla and six miles (10 km) south of the international border with Canada (Manitoba).

Started in 1976, Frost Fire has two chairlifts and a magic carpet, with 10 runs, ski rentals, day lodge, and the Wintersköl lounge. It has an outdoor theater which hosts several plays and musicals during the summer. An "upside-down" area, the parking lot and lodge are near the top of the ski runs.
