Mid-Atlantic/Southeast skiing (PA, NJ, DC, MD, VA, WV, NC, TN) for 2025-26

Meanwhile, in WV Timberline and Snowshoe got far more snow than expected. Snowshoe is offering free lift tickets to anyone with a 1-location season pass from a resort in the southeast that is closed for the season.

Over a Foot in 48 Hours?! Yeah… We’re Still Skiing

I sure hope y’all didn’t overindulge in shepherd’s pie and green beers for St. Patrick’s Day yesterday… because today, we ski!!! Mother Nature (or St. Patrick, depending on who you...

I was hoping to ski one more time in PA on Sunday and Blue is blowing snow this week but Sunday forecast is rain and 70 deg. I will check the webcams on Sat but probably not spend the drive time to ski in wet sloppy conditions. We leave for Banff next Wednesday and get back on the 4th and I expect slopes here to be closing by then given the warm weather forecast after a few days of cold.

After March 22, skiing in the southeast will be over for the 2025-26 season. Timberline and Snowshoe are the last to close. Bryce finished up on March 21.

Massanutten did something unusual during the last snowmaking window. They blew enough snow on the the snow tubing lanes to open up 4 lanes for the weekend. Also created some park features in the teaching area near the ski lodge. So no lifts running or ski patrol but anyone who wanted to hike and play on those features could do so.

Prepping for March 21-22 on March 19, 2026

I was considering going to Blue today as they are still open but it is going up to almost 70 and could not get there early enough today to make it worthwhile. We leave for Banff on Wednesday and I expect Blue may be closed for the season when we get back. I will try to use up days at American Dream before my 10 pass expires though in July/Aug.

If anyone is considering a season pass for the first time for the MidA/SE, best to check in April to see what's available. The lowest prices will probably be gone by May, if they aren't already.

Massanutten has shifted the age for a "free" senior pass for $19 to 78. A Full Pass for Seniors 70-77 for $250 is available April 1 to May 31. Will be the first season that I qualify.

Wintergreen started Tier 2 prices in late March, which go until early fall.

What's unusual for this season is that Camelback has kept one trail open. Even doing a bit of snowmaking in the last few weeks when Mother Nature cooperated. Plan to open for a final weekend, Fri-Sun, April 24-26.

The new leadership at the top seems to have made a difference, along with the investments in snowmaking in recent years since Camelback was sold to KSL Resorts (not exactly the same as KSL Capital that started Alterra).

TANNERSVILLE, Penn. - With a focus on elevating the guest experience, optimizing operational execution and continuing its strong commitment to safety and management, Camelback Resort, a year-round recreational destination nestled in the Pocono Mountains, has announced a new leadership team - naming Jason Bays vice president and general manager and Olivier Marc Glattfelder resort manager.

According to Ian Pullan, senior vice president of Peregrine Hospitality, which manages the 560-acre resort, the appointments reflect Camelback's strategic focus on operational excellence, hospitality innovation and guest experiences. "Jason and Olivier are a dynamic team, bringing an exceptional combination of leadership, vision and hands-on experience to the resort," he said. "Together, they will take Camelback Resort to even higher levels of excellence, driving performance across every area of the resort."

Bays will provide overall strategic direction for the resort, guiding operations and long-term business objectives. He will position Camelback as an employer of choice, bolstering team engagement and success. Glattfelder will oversee all day-to-day and front and back of the house operations.

Bays, who is an avid skier, brings not just his passion for snow sports and snowmaking to this position, but a unique history with the resort. "My first jobs as a teenager were at Camelback as both a lifeguard and ski instructor, and I participated in its after-school ski program when I was a kid," said Bays. "I was born and raised in the Poconos, and I look forward to moving back with my wife to raise our own family. I'm looking forward to our anticipated ski season opening day December 12 so we can get everyone - guests, family and friends - back out on the slopes!"
