Tussey Mountain
| | Okay, I'm on Tussey's Junior Race Team and we spend every waking moment at Tussey, and love it. It takes exactly 7 minutes and 43 seconds to get up the lift and 4 minutes and 22 seconds to get up the t-bar (which they fixed with duct tape) Never get chair 32, the bars don't go down, and chairs 75 and 1 are lucky. If you ask nicely in the lodge, they'll warm up your cinnamon bun for you and always try the vending machine without money first, it sometimes works. |
Also, never use the front door to the lodge, you are guarenteed to fall oh, and the mountain can be skied in full tuck in 15.4 seconds. Says Jordan.
With a 500 foot elevation difference it's not the highest hill there is,
| but Tussey Mountain makes up for it with other things. Tussey Mountain has a fairly humble variety of ski trails and enough good ski lifts to serve them all. Tussey Mountain has the biggest height difference among ski hills in a 51 mile radius. This ski mountain has 120 acres of skiable area, and all of it makes for glorious skiing. This ski resort gets lower snowfall than the local average every winter season. This is a standard size ski mountain boasting a | |
|
medium drop when you compare it to other ski hills in the region. All the 8 ski slopes here are beautiful. Tussey Mountain has an average proportion of expert and advanced slopes and an average proportion of beginner and intermediate
ski trails. The annual snowfall of 4 feet is not fantastically high, but it's acceptable. The 5 great ski lifts here make for a comforting ride up the slope. Tussey Mountain is a petite site, and people who work there are very welcoming.
You might be into skiing or snowboarding, or both, doesn't matter, in this general neighborhood, you'll discover lots of ski hills. No need to search hard for lodgings, but you'd better reserve before you go given that these lodgings
fill up fast. This is a popular ski resort for skiers from State College. Pennsylvania gets enormously pretty in the winter; it is so pretty for snowboarding and skiing. The skiing and the snowboarding in Pennsylvania is so much fun during the winter season.
