Pa. ski resorts adapt to the mild conditions – The Inky
Another season of poor snowfall isn’t holding back the ski areas in Eastern Pennsylvania like as much as last year. Cold nights have allowed for
snow-making even though the days have been a bit warm. Just a new normal it seems.
Seven Springs and other Western Pennsylvania [...]
Over the weekend, a number of resorts within driving distance of Washington, D.C. have fired up the snow guns (DC Ski).
Snowmaking is underway at many Mid-Atlantic resorts! Check out their progress on the DCSki Resort Webcams page.dcski.com/webcams/index.…

EARLY OUTLOOK
The real stuff has been falling as well with about four inches [...]
The latest snowstorm to hit BeltwayLand happened (for the most part) while I was in the Poconos skiing with my wife. We were at Camelback and it is pretty much the same as it always is except that my favorite slope, the Nile Mile has been changed to a blue square from a double green [...]

Over the weekend, I was telling my wife I already have skiing on the [...]
TANNERSVILLE, Pa. — Family and friends can breathe a sigh of relief — I finally went to Camelback Ski Area in the Poconos for my annual ski trip. I won’t be complaining I haven’t hit the slopes yet or asking them to come with me anymore!
Saturday morning, I woke up at regular time and [...]
I am finally going skiing! In mere minutes, I’ll be on the way to Camelback in the Poconos. Hopefully, I won’t break anything. More tomorrow!

Thanks Kathy! I had to blow away the comment though, because the link blew out the [...]
