Canaan Valley Resort,one of the "other" places to ski in Tucker County WV. Open from the top, great conditions, nice way to open my home season.
When Timberline and Canaan Valley Resort are firing on all cylinders they make for a pretty nice combination, enough variety for a week long ski vacation. I am tired of worrying about the situation at Timberline; while we wait for Timberline's situation to resolve, I am going to focus on what Canaan is doing right. There is still a lot of great skiing in the valley. CVR has fun terrain, nice facilities, a GREAT Snow Sports School and a bunch of new terrain opening over the next few days. Did I mention freshies for Christmas?
There is nothing wrong with CV at all. I agree when both resorts are open it spuces things up but CV can hold it’s own. We made plenty of group trips there when the kids were younger and everyone always had a blast. FWIW, the folks that work there at both the lodge and mountain as well as the management are top notch imo.
WE NEED COLD AIR!!! Canaan held up very well over the Holiday. The skiing was good and the niar didn't do too much damage, high winds Monday night were hard on things though. Conditions this week will be hard to predict. They hadn't closed any snowmaking terrain as of when I left yesterday and they planned to make some snow last night. Looks possible that they will be able to make some snow at night this coming week but that will just be maintenance and they plan to start snow making to get a base on Ramble. They won't be opening any new terrain this week but they just might keep what they have open.
LOL Say anything negative about anyplace that "sponsors" (as it will) them and you'll be banned!! LOL Somehow...Bill Rock got my personal phone number and CALLED me about a negative review re SS on that site!?!?!?
Hey glad you found us. I logged off over there a few weeks ago and can’t remember my password. Been to the shoe once this year, working at Canaan, life is good. See you downtown.
Altho I left my frickin skis leaning on the base patrol lodge, they've got them safe and sound, guess I'll be returning, not that there was any question of that
