Did anyone else go to 7 Springs this weekend? We were there Friday - Monday. Sunday and Monday were amazing!
I know this is a bit late (sorry, I didn't see the thread), but we've been skiing as a family at 7 Springs for 5 years now. It's my husband's home mountain, and where my kids are learning. I grew up skiing in Western NY and the Adirondak Mts, so for me the vertical feels a bit short? But there are a variety of trails, the lift lines are never ridiculously long, and we never get bored with it because the mountain is so wide. My only complaint is that the green trails are not great for true beginners. Each one seems to have a stretch that is both narrow and steep at the same time, and they can get REALLY crowded. So crowded that I feel scared that someone will smash into me or my kids - it's happened there before, usually with out-of-control boarders. Overall, though, we really enjoy it! It's too far from Northern VA for a day trip, so we either stay with my inlaws who live right outside of Pittsburgh, or for weekends like this past one, we rent a ski-in/ski-out townhouse with one or more families. It's expensive but worth it.
