Wisp ski area, Maryland - Skiing and Snowboarding

Wisp ski area, Maryland

The facilities at Wisp are I think pretty good. I like the more isolated side runs the best. says Joseph.

I love Wisp, it's my favorite ski area in the region. It's got great runs and a good lift system. I like the atmosphere of the place, it always feels good to come here for a day of skiing. says Ron.

With a grand total of 32 trails to ski on; it's a great array. The seasonal snowfall is in the region of average at this ski mountain. Wisp has an ok diversity of ski trails and a decent pick of great ski

    lifts. Wisp is a mid-size ski resort featuring a roughly average drop from top to bottom if compared to other mid Atlantic ski mountains. No other ski mountain for 25 miles has a more towering altitude difference. All 12 ski lifts at this ski hill are satisfactorily
kept up and managed by pleasant people. This ski area has an average fraction of expert and advanced ski trails and an average fraction of beginner and intermediate ski trails. Getting your skiing muscles activated and just being on the ski slopes for a while will have you coming back. There's 132 acres of skiable territory, and it's all blanketed by beautiful snow. You'll stumble upon lots of skiers from Somerset here. The annual snowfall of 8 feet keeps the trails well blanketed during the ski season. When this segment

of Maryland is blanketed in white snow; it is truly a great time of year for snowboarding and skiing. The 700 foot drop from top to bottom is naturally not that much to brag about, but all the other good properties of Wisp make up for it. Some people prefer skiing and some snowboarding, either way, this neighborhood has a lot of ski hills. No lack of tremendous lodgings, and if you make reservations prior to departure, you're all set. Skiing and snowboarding here in Maryland is lots of fun during the season. This ski mountain has a great collection of trails; it won’t leave anyone bored.
