7 springs should be dead last unless you wanna ride nothing but park all day. They used to be sick but really fell off the last couple seasons. We’ve had shit for snow so that’s most likely the cause.


Snowshoes pretty fun. Never had a bad time there. I would suggest getting lodging at the top of the Mtn not the cheap hotel at the bottom.

I ski at wintergreen most of the time. Parks are good because we have a good park crew. Rest of the mountain is pretty bad but it really could be worse. Massanutten is the worst ski resort I've ever been to. I will never go back even though it's 1 hour from my house. Snowshoe is awesome, they have great parks and good terrain and lots of snow. Never been to 7 springs but I hear they have good parks.

Hmm. Every time I have gone its been nice. If you go to the back side where the high speed lifts are, you can lap black groomers all day iyw. The hills on the back side are longer and less crowded. This is just from my experience though.

Also Timberline Mountain in West Virginia is reopening they got bought by Perfect North so I would say in the next couple seasons they’ll have some sick parks. The mountain is already super fun it was just run like shit. Only maybe an hour and half south of 7 Springs.

Lack of snow makes it tough but they usually have enough. There’s a lot of cat ops that are lazy and inexperienced and won’t want to change features out or make good ones. And if a feature is good they’ll find a way to really fuck it up. Nice flat tube in beard? Yeah let’s build the lip 5 feet back with a 45 degree angle.

there’s a lot of really sick rails they have that weren’t even touched this year. Sad how bad they run the parks with the amount of potential they have.

Wisp would be closer than Springs would be then. Its my home mountain not a bad place parks been fun but we don't have a ton of parks like Springs does. We usually have 2-3 parks. Personally I like the riding outside of the park better than springs but I'm a bit biased.

If you can make the trek its worth checking out Sugarloaf in Maine. My favorite East Coast spot.
