Dec. 10, 2014. When the world was created, North Carolina’s Appalachian Mountains received special consideration…the highest mountains east of the Rockies, temperatures cold enough for snowmaking, incredible scenery…and some of the friendliest folks in the world.
Beech Mountain Resort sits high above any east coast ski resort at 5,505 feet. Cataloochee Ski Area reaches a height of 5,400 feet while Sugar Mountain Resort peaks out at 5,300 feet. Wolf Ridge Ski Resort’s elevation is 4,700 feet. Even North Carolina’s smallest ski resorts Appalachian Ski Mtn. and Sapphire Valley boast impressive east coast elevations; 4,000 feet and 3,400 feet respectively. Situated at thirty-six degrees latitude these ski resorts are impressive in many ways.
Loads of details about the anomaly of North Carolina skiing and riding can be found on the state association’s newwebsite, unveiled just a few days ago.
