Elk Mountain ski area, Pennsylvania - Skiing and Snowboarding

Elk Mountain ski area, Pennsylvania

Elk is uncrowded and really fun. They seem to make the best out off the conditions weather gives them. Good, long trails(for Pa). I liked the mini park. The ''bigger'' park made the best of the space. I surface lift in the park lets you session as long as you want, and stay in the park. Great for dialing in on my skillz. Couple of the rail and box features are really cool. I will go to Elk a couple times a year. says 1sweetstick.
