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.

Wisp gets blanketed by an average amount of snow every season. There's 132 acres of skiable area, and it's all in splendid condition. The 700 foot elevation difference is of course not that much to brag
    about, but Wisp has so many other perfect attributes. All of the 12 lifts will get you up the slope effectively. Wisp is a mid-size ski area having an elevation difference that's in the order of average when you compare it to other ski resorts in the region. Wisp
has the greatest drop among ski resorts in a 25 mile radius. This ski area has a decent collection of trails and sufficient good ski lifts to serve them all. This ski resort has an average part of red and black trails and an average percentage of green and blue trails. Getting a nice workout and a chance to spend some time in the wilderness attract ski folks from far and near. The 8 feet of good snow that fall here per season keeps the trails well covered during the winter. The winter in Maryland is the most wonderful  
time of the year for skiing or snowboarding. On this slope you'll find 32 different runs; it's a splendid diversity. There are a number of delightful hotel rooms near the bottom area, but you'd better book ahead of going as these hotel rooms fill up rapidly. Wisp has a great pick of ski trails to fit all abilities; it won’t leave anyone bored. The snowboarding and the skiing in Maryland is so much fun every day of the snow season. As you're on this internet page you are probably into skiing or snowboarding, either way, this area has a lot of ski areas.
