Blue Mountain Resort is one of the East Coast's most well-known ski resorts and is located in the Pocono Mountains, within easy reach of both New York and Philadelphia. The proximity to the big cities characterizes the resort – here the pace is high, the lifts are efficient and the focus is on maximum skiing rather than mountain idyll.
Skiing is characterized by a clear drop line and relatively steep slopes for the region, which means that the slopes are perceived as more physical than many other ski resorts in the northeastern United States. The terrain slopes down the mountain clearly without long transport distances, something that is appreciated by skiers who want short, intense runs with good pressure.
Blue Mountain is especially known for its extensive night skiing, where large parts of the system are illuminated. This provides the opportunity for long skiing days and contributes to the facility living large parts of the day. The parks are a central part of the range and are consistently of a high level, with natural progression and a clear focus on freestyle.
This is not a ski resort for privacy or pristine terrain, but rather for those looking for efficient skiing, consistent slopes and high energy. Blue Mountain is a clear example of modern, East Coast skiing where accessibility and intensity are at the center.
