Wolf Ridge ski area, Great Smoky Mountains, North Carolina

  Wolf Laurel ski area is really really good, ask anyone. says Robert.

This ski resort has a somewhat small variety of slopes and sufficient good ski lifts to serve them all. The 700 foot altitude difference is naturally not that much to brag about, but Wolf Ridge has so many other great features. This is a typical size ski hill having a roughly average height difference when you compare it to other ski hills in the region. The yearly snowfall is lower than average at Wolf Ridge. Wolf Ridge has the biggest vertical
    drop among ski hills in a 46 mile radius. There are 5 ski lifts here, and they are skillfully maintained and run by welcoming people. The 20 ski trails at this ski area are magnificent. Wolf Ridge has a much lower than average part of demanding ski slopes and
a much higher than average share of green and blue slopes. Skiing and snowboarding here in North Carolina is a lot of fun the whole winter. The 5 feet of fluffy snow that fall here every winter is not exceptionally high, but it's reasonable. The skiable land being 82 acres, it's relaxed enough to get to know all your fellow ski people. This is a great ski resort for everyone with lots of green and blue trails. Not too many accommodations in close proximity, you'll have to travel a bit to get to one, but you'd better reserve  
previous to going given that these accommodations fill up rapidly. North Carolina gets very striking in the winter; it is the most grandiose time of the year for skiing or snowboarding. The highlands of the Great Smoky Mountains make for a magnificent vista. No matter if you're skiing or snowboarding, close by, you'll discover loads of good places. Getting a good workout and just being on the slopes for a while are good reasons to come. In wintertime the Great Smoky Mountains is a magnificent place for skiing or snowboarding. This is a popular ski hill for skiers from Johnson City.
