What’s the most important
thing to skiers and snowboarders? The slopes, of
course! Top resorts are tops because they have great
slopes, short lift lines, and great snow. Problem is, good
conditions are hit or miss with the weather, and
only last for a few months a year.
Now we all know we have some good skiing in the
east, but it just doesn’t hang around long, and
that’s tough.
That’s about
to change.
If you want to get a GREAT ski
vacation when you want,
then the answer is the
Westmoreland
Ski Resort.
Westmoreland
Ski Resort is beginning construction of a one of a kind
skiing facility that will simply blow you away!
Perched near the Great Smoky Mountains, just west of
Asheville, NC will be the first fully indoor ski
resort in the United States.
That’s right, it’s all about the skiing - real
skiing on real snow, all year round!
This is a full-blown winter sports resort with 5
indoor slopes between 3,600 feet (family run) and
750 feet (moguls) on actual mountain slopes with just over
40
acres under roof. The extreme slope is about 3/4 mile
long, with an overall drop of about 900 feet. With 6
total
inside triple lifts, there won’t be long wait lines,
so you can make back-to-back runs that will
challenge even the most advanced/professional-level skiers
and snowboarders.
The alpine slopes are between 24% and 36% for
skiers, an extreme slope for adrenaline junkies,
moguls, half-pipes and a free style terrain area for
the snowboarders, and of course, something for the
beginner.
