Ski liberty is the best. im from bethesda md, and i skied there for most my life. they got a decent sized park with a good amount of rails and some small but enjoyable jumps. Wisp mountain resort has another good park andbigger mountain, its 3 hours away though. check out liberty whitetail and roundtop, season pass is like 400 for all three. what school btw

im sure if you can find enough people georgetown would get a bus for you. maybe you could see if there is a ski club, and if not, you should form one. theres bound to be other people there who ski, so ask around

Yea definetly see if there is a ski club around and they can probably get trips goin out, or theyll have carpools. I usualy go to Whitetail or Liberty, Liberty is a little smaller vertical rise wise, but its park is definetly better than Whitetail's. Last year they had a pretty good setup, try to go during the week if you can because then it will be a lot less crowded and better kept. From DC, they should be around an hour and a half or so away. Other than that there are some pretty sick urban hits around DC. I'm from Fairfax County, so I will probably be going to Liberty Whitetail and Roundtop a lot when I get back from school.
