Rollercoaster is a cross-country ski route in Rusk County Forest, Wisconsin, on county land about 0.11 miles from the start. It is a short out-and-back, about 0.22 miles long, with a total climb of 39 feet and a steepest grade of about 4% near the start. Winter is the natural season for this route. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show January highs around 23°F with lows near 5°F, and February is similar at about 28°F and 8°F. That station sits roughly 300 feet lower than the route, so temperatures on the trail run a little cooler. Several other ski routes lie close by. Roundabout is about 0.1 mile away, Whitetail about 0.2 mile, and Hairpin and The Ridgeline each about half a mile.
