Liberty Mountain Resort

Close-to-home, plenty of slopeside amenities, numerous mountain and lodge improvements, tons of skiing, snowboarding and snow tubing opportunities. Join us at Liberty Mountain Resort this winter season for the perfect mountain getaway! Plan an overnight stay, one-day "snowcation" or weekend getaway with the whole family. Stay in our slopeside Liberty Hotel and enjoy meals at our various eateries, including McKee's Tavern and the newly improved bakery. Enjoy skiing, snowboarding and snow tubing on our over 100 acres of skiable terrain. Our mountain includes 16 trails, 5 quad chairlifts, 3 terrain parks, and a large snow tubing hill. Our Ski and Snowboard Schools offer a wide variety of lessons and programs for all ability levels, and specialize in first timers to the sport. Unsure about skiing or snowboarding? Give snow tubing at try at the Boulder Ridge Lodge! Featuring 15 tubing lanes, a special kiddie tubing area for those ages 2-4, party rooms, an outdoor deck, and food and beverage in the beautiful lodge, Boulder Ridge Snow Tubing creates a fun winter atmosphere for everyone. During your visit, be sure to check out our latest resort upgrades - new quad chairlift on the backside of the mountain, Alpine Room redesign, new lift station area at the First Class Area quad, and the exciting addition to the terrain parks. Best of all, we've added more computerized and automated snowmaking so we will be able to make more of the fluffy white stuff faster, and more efficiently. We will be whiter and "greener" at the same time!

#67013 - 03/23/12 11:51 PM Weather elsewhere?
Sincraft Senior Member Registered: 09/05/11 Posts: 186	I really didnt pay attention this year due to the disappointment on our front. Was the weather throughout the rest of the country or, possibly still as CRAZY as it has been on the east? I've heard there is a causation for this, but do not recall the actual reason. Was hoping some weather gurus could explain it potentially. I'm pretty sick of hearing that global warming is the cause only to see it snow record amounts the next season. Or recently, a precursor to the chaos that is believed to be the end, .... 2012, end of the world type of talk. It does concern me that things normally squashed durign the cold months, and the potential weather conditions from such EXTREME temps outside the norm will present ramifications beyond a poor ski season...of course I'd never pass on such crazy notions as doomsday precursors, one does have to wonder if there is something ominous on the horizon with such wildly bizarre weather though.

Was the weather throughout the rest of the country or, possibly still as CRAZY as it has been on the east? Pacific NW (Alaska, Wash, Ore) had a banner, if not record year. Taos and southern CO were very good early, not sure about the rest of the season. Rest of the U.S. pretty much sucked by their standards (but still had some snow.) Western U.S. may be catching up in the past week or so with the current weather pattern. Europe - record cold and plenty of snow(?). _________________________ Blue Knob.

hockeydave Senior Member Registered: 06/30/04 Posts: 655 Loc: Parts Unknown	Whistler had a banner year and continues to do so. I keep getting email updates almost daily that they received significant snow (at least 4 inches in a 24 hour period) at mid mountain.

fishnski Senior Member Registered: 03/27/05 Posts: 2732 Loc: the beach at wilmington,NC	I lived in Washington state for about a year...too poor to ski then but I did get up enough gas money to head to the mountains a couple times to escape rainy Seattle..And what a site!..Snow beyond anything I had dreamed of..& as scenic as it gets.. Here are some stats for stevens pass ski area...an area in size between snowqualmie pass & Crystal mtn. what I love about these Mountains is you dont have to worry about elevation and it normaly doesnt get too cold..many times hovering right around freezing. They have recieved almost 11 feet of snow for march so far..they just extended the season till may.. and it will snow pretty good for the next week. I have to figure out a way to retire early! Snowfall & Terrain Stevens has lots of it, averaging 450" of snowfall each year, 105" of annual average snowpack, covering 1,125 acres of skiable terrain, including 37 major runs and numerous bowls, glades and faces. •Base area elevation 4,061' •Top elevation Cowboy Mountain 5,845' •Top elevation Big Chief Mountain 5,600 •Mill Valley base elevation 3,821' •1,800 vertical feet on three sides of two different mountains. _________________________ ALPine in the APPalachians..WV Alpps...Bring on Almost heaven!
