Ski Season
When the season of fall is over, and the temperature drops, ski season is right around the corner. Skiing is a fun sport for anybody. The best places to go around Pennsylvania are Seven Springs and Hidden Valley. Another good place is The Wisp down a little farther in Maryland. Each place offers great slopes and good quality fun for skiers and snowboarders, no matter what level they are. There is something to do for every skilled athlete to keep them coming back and loving it more and more.
When going skiing the main thing is to stay safe and warm. The proper gear to have is a jacket, pants, gloves, goggles, and a face mask. I recommend a helmet to stay safe so it is possible to go on the slopes again and keep having fun. Skiing is a fun sport that my dad passed down to me and I have gotten better and better since I have started. I was scared the first time I went, but after I got over the fear I did not want to stop. It is a sport for the whole family to do because my dad and I bond over it. I like to go with friends because going by myself is not too fun.
Skiing can be very expensive because of how much the gear cost and the lift ticket. A lift ticket costs $70.00, but if skiers go a lot it is cheaper to buy season passes for $500.00. It is worth down the road because all of those lift tickets add up. I look forward to the season every year and I like to get new things to keep my style looking good. Being with my friends and family is a blast and having fun while doing it is even better.
