A family mountain in the Laurel Highlands of Pennsylvania, around an hour from Pittsburgh, with 26 slopes and trails on a modest hill.

It is built around learning, with a large ski school and gentle terrain, and it is on the Epic Pass, which is unusual for a hill of this size. Snowmaking does nearly all the work at this latitude, so check conditions before setting out.

There is lodging at the base and the surrounding Laurel Highlands have plenty of options. Seven Springs is nearby under the same ownership and gives a bigger day.
