Full review

This was my 1st ski area east of the rockies. I was not expecting much and was plesantly surprised. We lucked out because it had recently snowed that week and the conditions were pretty good. There are only about 6 runs, but the elevation is pretty high for the east, so the snow stays in pretty good condition. Seems to be a decent amount of regular snow making as well. Lift line at the bottom can get a little long on the weekend, but that is the same everywhere. Lift tickets and rental fees are fairly cheap compared to out west.
