Southern park?

[method9455]

Hey,

 

 

So i'm either going to University of Maryland or University of Delaware - I know the snowboarding is going to suck going from a quick drive to Mountain Creek to like a 1-2 hour drive for even the smallest of mountains, but what are my options? I'm about 85% sure it will be UMD but there is a 15% chance UDel if the scholarship comes through, so Wisp may or may not be in the cards. What is the southern most mountain in PA with a park worth a damn? Liberty/Roundtop/Bear Creek/Blue? But I can't figure out which would be closest and how far they are from UMD. I say this becuase I want to take a trip to one or two of them and see which I should be getting a season pass from next fall but I don't want to waste my time and money going to a place that is really far from UMD and I can't figure out which is closest.

ok i leave near UMD.

heres ur stuff

liberty about 1 hour 40mins

roundtop 2 hours

wisp 2 1/2 hours ish with traffic

whitetail 1 hour 30mins

your best bet is going for wisp i go there all the time dude

season pass would be the way to go its only like 250 bucks for a student season pass its a really good deal and has 2 good parks and a pipe and like 40 some trails.

have you ever been there? looks decent to me. 1500 vert? thats more than anything in PA. it looks like the mountain on the left is newer and a good place for expansion and it already has "two of the most challenging trails in the east". haha.
