snowshoe $200 v seven springs $400 season pass

[Lubing (Larry) Lian 廉路兵]

(1) snowshoe and seven springs pa are comparable, with regard to size, snow quality, season length (but approximately Dec 1st to April 1st). but snowshoe has more vertical. 

(2) seven springs pa $400 is better than snowshoe $200 because 7springs is 1.5 hour closer one way (7springs = 3 hour one way, almost all federal freeway, snowshoe = 4.5 hours, substantial portion of local, narrow road that is hard to drive during snow storm)

it's a bit of a stretch, but 7springs is doable for a day trip. 

(3） if buy snowshoe, no need to drive to snowshoe today to buy the $200 season pass, can call 877.441.4386 to buy

http://www.snowshoemtn.com/tickets-and-passes/tickets-and-passes.aspx

(4) if buy 7springs, see below email. before April 30, $50 off the $469 price, plus some further discount if pay cash/check.

(5) for both snowshoe and 7springs if you buy next season's season pass, you get ski the rest of THIS reason for free.

Congrats to Snowrider!

I went to liberty for 2 times after last time we met at Whitetail. Liberty has much less crowd than whitetail. And I can finally make it to the backside of the mountain now:D
Plan to go again this week to get some more practice before the end of the season. Hope to see people from this group there!

歡迎歡迎!  我最近超級忙所以沒能回帖!  昨天剛剛達成了一個重大的里程碑 - 下次同學如果到 Whitetail 就可以看到我佩戴一個漂亮的 silver pin ...

Whitetail 與 Liberty 都是同一家公司 ... 關於他們的比較:

高度落差 - Whitetail 比較大

滑雪面積 - Whitetail 比較大

滑道長度 - Whitetail 比較長

雪季天數 - Liberty 比 Whitetail 多一星期

總之這兩家都差不多 ... 我選擇 Whitetail 為我的 home resort

大家好，小妹今年初学滑雪，上上周在whitetail上课遇上了snowrider大哥，得到指点找到这个群。群里都是高手，希望什么时候能和各位高手一起滑雪学习啊，跟着老师学感觉比自己瞎琢磨有用多了：）

这几次都去的whitetail，现在还是只能滑绿道，滑来滑去总觉得没啥进步，就是觉得滑得特费劲，不像别人感觉很轻松很自如的感觉。明天准备去liberty试试，听说那边那条很长的绿道dipsy doodle比whitetail的好，希望长点能多做一些练习。 听说whitetail蓝道比较好，liberty的绿道比较好,不知道是不是这样啊？另外这两个山头哪个山头的蓝道比较容易一点？我准备什么时候壮着胆子上去试试。

多谢高手同学们，大家新年好！

I totally agree with you!  Seven Springs has good terrain park (and especially their Super Pipe).  The only trail that I would ski at Snowshoe is the Western Territory run.  Go to get a Mountain Collective pass ASAP, and we can go skiing out West together next snow season!

My 2 cents: 7 Springs is good place for beginner to intermediate. If you think you are better than that, do not waste your money to get a season pass at 7 Springs. I'd rather spend that $400 on a big mountain ski trip. Snowshoe, I have been there once. Not impressive though.

 

My background: Living in Pittsburgh area,  I have been to 7 springs for over 50 times. This is my 6th season. If you have any question about 7 Springs, feel free to drop some line.

 

FYI only 1 dbl diamond slope (goose bump) open during entire season at 7 springs. Terrrain parks are very good. When you are there, make sure you try the half pipe, one of the tallest on the east coast!

It's easy to drive to 7Springs on highway

我周末想去snowshoe，想问问前辈们如果去的话，住在哪里比较好？好像除了resort里面的lodging之外，其他都要在至少一个小时的车程以外。

第一次去snowshoe，啥都不知道，希望有经验的朋友指点一下。

谢谢

Anywhere on the top of Snowshoe Mtn would be OK. 

Don't stay at the bottom of Snowshoe or Cass, WV
