Any of you know of a good place to snowboard around here? I haven't been able to go because of health reasons these last couple years but I really want to go this year. Any sugestions? I live in Greenville,which is south of Raleigh.

Cataloochee outside asheville is not the best, but it's close. You can head up further north to Ski Beach and Sugar Mountain for a little bit better time. I am sure you know you aren't going to find boarding in this area like out west or up in Alaska. I learned to ski up in Alaska and going around here just depresses me.

Wolf Laurel has better slopes but it's also a little snootie as far as the people your on the slope with, but that is just a personal opinion!!!

Got a few in WV also. Flat Top resort. Never been but see lots of boards heading up the Mtn. I haven't personally been on any Mtns. around here since the 90's. Cant really recommend the best Board Mtn.

Me too! I got tired of Michigan Resorts and hung it up a few years ago but it's on my "bucket list" to go snow boarding so... I'll probably book one of their mid week specials. It's about $150 which includes two nights lodging,lift passes for two days,equipment rental,lessons,a gas card (kinda weird) and some other stuff I forget. It's about 5 hours from here but it sounds like fun for a couple days. I'm gonna install some loops for a guy for a grand in about a month so I'll use that money for the trip and live it up a little! |

Wolf Laurel near Mars Hill in Yancy County(I think) is off of I-26 NC exit 3, Cathaloochee Ski Lodge in Maggie Valley exit 27 I-40 then exit 103(Think) off of 23/74 are both pretty good. There are some in the Boone area but that's 2and 1/2 hours from us. From Raleigh it's about 5 hours. Hope this helps you out.
