Snowshoe ski area, West Virginia

  Snowshoe has the biggest elevation drop of any skiresort in the region which in my oppinion makes it a realtively great ski resort. You can get more skiing done before you have to get on the lift again. Which I think is very important in a ski resort. says Tom.

The 14 lifts here are in tremendous condition. This ski area boasts an average amount of snow each winter. This is a better size than average ski area having a high drop from top to bottom when you compare it to other ski areas in the region. Snowshoe has a much
    lower than average percentage of hard runs and a much higher than average fraction of blue and green trails. Snowshoe has an ok variety of trails and a splendid selection of great ski lifts. This ski mountain has 57 trails that you may ski on; there are ample
trails for every skill. The skiing and the snowboarding in West Virginia is so much fun every day of the ski season. You have to go 836 miles to get to a ski area having a fuller-scale vertical drop.

Not too many rooms in the neighborhood, you'll have to journey a bit to get to one, but you'd better book before heading out given that these  
rooms fill up swiftly. The 1,500 feet of drop is reasonably okay; Snowshoe makes good use of it all. Getting your skiing muscles activated and just hanging out with your skiing mates will make you pleased you came.
