SNOWSHOE, W. Va – (October 16, 2024) – Snowshoe Mountain has received its first snow of the season over the past 48 hours, creating a spectacular clash between fall and winter around the region’s largest ski area. Snowshoe has targeted Wednesday, November 27th as the tentative opening date for the 2024/25 winter season.
“If you love winter the way we do, that first snowfall of the season is truly special. It’s the moment where you go from daydreaming about ski season to really making your plans,” said Snowshoe spokesperson Shawn Cassell. “There’s some extra anticipation for this winter because it’s our 50th Anniversary and we plan to celebrate that all season long. It looks like Mother Nature is eager to help us get the party started!”
Resort officials are planning to crank up the resort’s state-of-the-art snowmaking system on Nov. 1 in preparation for the season ahead.
50TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION – DEC. 19-22
Snowshoe is planning to party like it’s 1974 in celebration of 50 years of skiing on the mountain. Head to the resort December 19-22 for a variety of throwback fun including après parties, an all gold rail jam, a soul train dance party, live music, fireworks, comedy shows, and much more.
