Hawksnest, NC
Submitted By: Ted

Overall impression of the riding: Despite the fact that this is the reddest, crappiest, slowest and iciest place ever, it is still the best skiing in North Carolina. All of the other resorts in this are priced too high, over crowded, and lack steepness. This is the best value, as long as you are willing to put up with the drunk rednecks careening towards you on their old 220's in hunter's orange and RealTree camo. Night Hawk is horrible. Don't ever do it. This other guy has no idea what he is talking about.
