Snowshoe, WV - Ski season is just over a month away, with Opening Day planned for November 23rd at
Snowshoe Mountain Resort, but Mother Nature must already be thinking winter, as the Pocahontas County, W.Va resort saw another foot of natural snowfall this weekend. More than 20” of natural snow has now fallen in the month of October, an early start to a winter season that typically averages 180” of snowfall at Snowshoe.
In addition to the natural snow, Snowshoe took advantage of freezing temperatures, turning on the resort’s region’s most powerful snowmaking system in the early morning hours of Friday, October 28. Saturday’s sustained cold weather allowed for around-the-clock snowmaking in addition to the natural snow that fell throughout the day. With temperatures flirting with the freezing mark on a sunny Sunday morning, snowmaking came to a halt, with several overnight chances in the week ahead to continue building an early season base.
As skiers and snowboarders around the region away the start of a new season, Snowshoe has several new features to offer guests, including a new terrain park, a new winch cat groomer, several new family adventure activities, three new restaurants and a new retail store. And through Monday, guests booking winter lodging or retail products will receive 20% off. Snowshoe Season Passes are also on sale, with early season savings, including a special $249 rate for college students, expiring on October 31st as well.
