Fresh Conditions All Season Long
Just one night of cold temps allows our snowmakers to create fresh powder on the entire mountain, and a deep snow base ensures great skiing even on warm days. All slopes are typically groomed daily to give skiers fresh conditions with a corduroy-like surface.
The High Country’s First Ski Area
Appalachian Ski Mtn. had its beginning over 50 years ago when Grady Moretz and four other partners purchased the area as a foreclosure in a public auction. The ski area was known as “Blowing Rock Ski Lodge” when it opened in 1962 and officially named Appalachian Ski Mtn. in 1968.
