Thanks for visiting SkiNorthCarolina.com!
The answers to just about any question that you may be asking, can be found on our website. However, if you have asked a specific question that is not addressed on the site, or you have requested assistance that needs specific or special attention, we will respond shortly (with a second email).
Otherwise, you will find our most requested questions answered at the links below:
Ski Season dates: Typically, ski season opens Thanksgiving weekend and runs through the end of March. However, over the last few years, resorts have been able to open sooner, and the normal closing date is March 31st, depending on the weather.
***Special note for this season: COLD and SNOW is on the way! We cannot predict
whether or not it will snow on specific dates that you are visiting us. If we could, we'd predict it for EVERY DAY! However, our area DOES receive quite a lot of snow during a normal winter, and even when we don't get natural snow, the resorts do a GREAT job of creating manmade snow.
***We've had a lot of people ask "how cold does it have to be to make snow?"
Typically, it should be below freezing, however depending on humidity, they have made snow at about 38 degrees!
Ski Reports: http://www.skinorthcarolina.com/skireports.asp
They are updated AT LEAST once each day at around 7:30-8:00am. During periods that the weather or snow warrants more frequent updates...we do!
