Sugar Mountain ski area, North Carolina

  I HAD THE TIME OF MY LIFE AT SUGAR! NOTHING COMPARES TO IT! DONT GO TO THE IMITATIONS LIKE BEECH AND HAWKSNEST, SUGAR BY FAR IS THE BEST. says Josh.

This ski area has a much lower than average percentage of challenging slopes and a much higher than average part of easy runs. This ski hill has a humble collection of runs and enough lifts to serve them all. There's 115 acres of skiing land, and all of it makes for wonderful skiing. This is an ordinary size ski mountain boasting a high drop from top to bottom when
    compared to other mid Atlantic ski mountains. The seasonal snowfall of 7 feet keeps the depth good. There are 8 lifts here, and they are in good condition. Sugar Mountain is a good ski mountain for everyone with loads of blue and green trails for learners. Magnificent
exercise and just hanging out with your skiing friends will have you coming back for more. The skiing and the snowboarding in North Carolina is so much fun through the winter. All the 20 ski runs here are totally enjoyable. The 1,200 feet of vertical drop is not that shaggy; Sugar Mountain makes great use of it. You have to go 182 miles to get to a ski mountain with a bigger drop. The yearly snowfall is lighter than average at Sugar Mountain. No matter if you're skiing or snowboarding, this neighborhood has lots of ski  
hills. There are scores of glorious rooms to choose from, but do reserve a room in advance of a trip because it is a very popular destination. The lovely vista of the North Carolina peaks and the very perfect slopes are perfect attractions for loads of skiers. The snow covered summits of North Carolina are a good location for skiing or snowboarding.

Special features: 1 Terrain Park with various man-made and natural features, 1 700 ft Tubing Park with lights, 1 10,000 sq ft outdoor Ice Skating Rink with lights, Guided Snowshooe tours available 4 days/week
