The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

Remind me what coast I'm on - East or West? My girlfriend and I decided to take advantage of the 49inches recieved at 7 Springs since Jan 1 and headed up from Arlington, VA on Sunday. We booked an awesome deal, Sunday night stay in the lodge with afternoon/night skiing on arrival and all day lift ticket on Monday - for $80 each! This is the first place I ever skied and I haven't been back in 16 years - since moving back after 8 years in Montana and Colorado. The conditions were superb and the lift lines minmal on Monday. If you have never been to the Springs, right now is the time to go. Enjoy the photos.

Everything was a little tracked out from the weekend crowd - and Sunday was the first day in 10 with no fresh - but the glades were in great shape in general.



On Monday morning the corduroy was phenominal (see pic #6).

7 Springs is only about 60 miles as the "crow flies" due north of Wisp. So while the latter is featured on this site, the former is not out of the reach of many south of the Mason-Dixon Line.



Just sayn, trying to spread the good word of the Laurel Highlands = big time lake snow belts. But dont tell too many peeps!
