Best Ski Resort for Advanced Skiers in Pennsylvania: Blue Mountain Resort - Advanced Rating

Advanced riders at Blue Mountain Resort praise the impressive terrain parks and groomed runs. A Snomad community member who's an advanced skier noted, "I started in eighth grade and I'm just trying to get more into freestyle skiing." For snowboarders, the parks offer plenty of features to progress on. While some advanced users mention limited tree runs and off-piste options, the resort still delivers a solid experience. One advanced skier commented that it's "probably the best mid-Atlantic ski area." The mountain can get crowded though, with another user pointing out it's sometimes "overpriced, overcrowded, but not many better options in the region."

#2 Seven Springs - Advanced Rating

For advanced skiers, Seven Springs delivers a solid East Coast experience. The resort's commitment to snow-making shines through, with our reviewers praising the well-maintained groomed runs. One Snomad community member liked that "The Alley always has a nice terrain park setup with 20+ features," making it a top choice for trick enthusiasts. Though tree runs can be hit-or-miss depending on natural snowfall, and some slopes tend to get icy despite twice-daily grooming, the resort offers enough challenging terrain to keep experienced skiers engaged. The mountain's fast lifts mean more time carving down the slopes and less time queuing.
