In case you haven’t noticed this winter has brought favorable conditions to the Blue Ridge region’s ski areas. Looking at reports from West Virginia, Maryland, Tennessee, North Carolina, and Virginia, base depths are high and the number of open slope numbers is plentiful. Rumor has it Beech Mountain’s Oz Run will open soon. Wolf Ridge is open top to bottom. Sugar Mountain has both Tom Terrific and Whoopdeedoo open, and then there’s West Virginia’s Snowshoe, which has received 48” of snow for the season and is operating 48 of 51 slopes. So pack up the family and get some turns in during the upcoming long holiday weekend!
