Montage Ski Area (NOW Sno Mountain)!
Day
and Night Skiing where the Poconos and Wyoming Valley collide.
Montage Mountain is in the far Northwestern Poconos. The area has 1,000 feet of vertical drop (we'll check that out), 21 trails and seven lifts.
The terrain goes from beginner to double black diamond with the steepest pitch in the Pocono northwest and long intermediate cruising trails. There's 100 percent snowmaking and 100 percent night skiing.
The
"Skiing Improvement Center" is for all levels of skiers from
first-timer's to advanced racing and freestyle levels. As at Shawnee
skiers can start at age 3 with the SKIwee Program, and for the more
advanced there is a NASTAR racing program. The mountain is open to snowboarders,
but they have a Freestyle Snowboarding Fun Park, and a 500-foot half-pipe.
Montage also offers instruction in both skiing and snowboarding. There is also: child care, group ticket discount program(s), ski and stay discount lift tickets/hotel reservations,a full-service rental shop, and ice skating at nearby Lackawanna Stadium.
Montage Ski Resort is just outside of Scranton, at Exit 51 off of Interstate 81.
