Big Snow indoor ski resort.


Recommended Posts

Here’s a good article on Big Snow indoor ski area.  They’re currently doing about 2,000 skier visits a day and projected to do 500,000 a year a lot of the focus is on teaching new skiers and snowboarders.

That should make Ski2live happy to see. It is an interesting article about the place and I look forward to drinking there after skiing this summer.

I wonder how much longer campgaw will stay open. Their demographic is people in the city and urban nj areas looking for an easy place to learn, and big snow seems poised to capture those people.

Good point. Campgaw has not much more vertical (240 vs 160), has more expensive tix (good for a longer time, but how long do people spend somewhere this size), is further from NYC and is generally gonna have worse weather and conditions. 

The main thing Campgaw would seem to have going for it as a differentiator is snow tubing (kind of surprised they did not include tubing at Big Snow).

Campgaw also has some longer windier trails off the side and from the YouTube videos I looked up a pretty good park. I might have to stop on the way home from hunter one day for a few turns just in case.
