<p>Are there any nearby (even 2-3 hrs away) mountain resorts for skiing and snowboarding?
Does anyone at Penn go?
thanks!</p>
<p>i think the poconos is nearby unsure though</p>
<p>yep poconos are close, about 2 hours away</p>
<p>i'm going there in a few hours =p</p>
<p>penn has a club ski team that competes at various locations in pennsylvania--I believe that anyone can join and that they compete at about 5-7 events</p>
<p>I've never skied in pennsylvania to tell you the truth. I actually haven't skied in a lot of places ( basically just vermont and bariloche in argentina). But I've heard skiing in the poconos sucks. Like I said, I haven't been to a lot of places, so I have no idea, but that's what I've heard.</p>
<p>Blue Mountain isn't too far and it's pretty fun. They've got the steepest ski slope in the state.</p>
<p>Well thats ok I'm not expecting much</p>
<p>I mean... Southern California skiing pretty much is terrible</p>
<p>but liveable</p>
<p>people end up going down with a tee shirt on many days when its 60</p>
