That’s awesome, I didn’t even realize there were good mountains in those states! I have yet to visit, and always wanted to see both. Thank you so much, that would be awesome and I’ll definitely let you know!

"Mountains" might be a stretch! We suffer from a lack of vertical, but better skiing & terrain than you'd expect

Ah, then suggest you read up about Timberline in Davis, WV. We'll worth a bit of a detour for a night. Great fun for all ability levels. The long green from the top is a favorite of kids learning to skis, as well as cautious intermediates who learned as adults. I've taken friends there who are intermediates and they had a great time. Bonus is that it's easy for a better skier to take a different route and then meet up at the base for another ride up together on the high-speed 6-pack to the top.

The same could be said about the mountains in the southeast. Few people who don't know the area realize that Beech Mountain and Sugar Mountain near Boone, NC are over 4000 ft. I went to my first demo day at Sugar at the annual SugarFest in mid-December. The northern midwest gets a lot more cold days good for snowmaking than NC or VA."Mountains" might be a stretch!

Since this thread is about Moment skis . . . I demo'd the Moment Sierra at the Alta Demo Day in 2011 and 2012. At the time, what I was looking for were wider skis for trips out west since my all-mountain skis as an adventurous intermediate were 75 underfoot and I was starting to ski a run or two per day off the groomers. In the end I bought the original Black Pearl, 88 underfoot, used from a Diva. I had rented the "purple bull" Black Pearls as demo skis and knew that I liked them.
