I had not skied in over 15years. I loved skiing on a monday with nobody there. Was a little disapointed that they where not serving food in the lodge or restraunt. Tip1 bring food. Would have been good to know. Went with my 18 yer old son. He was wore out before me. It would have cost me $50 or more to go to anyother ski area nearby. Son took a board lesson. Instructer was very good. Tip 2 take a lesson. Thanks Swain for the good time with my son. Tip 3 go to Swain,

It sucks. Trails were not groomed. Lots of rocks on the trails and should of been making snow and wasn't. Probably won't go back.

I went on a Sunday night and it was packed. Lift lines were decent but the hill was overly crowded especially in the terrain parks. Every time I lined up for a jump a little kid or someone would cut me off or just stop on the landing. I even saw a class in the terrain park doing pizzas over all the hits. The park is not fenced in and people don't have any consideration when it comes to others. 95% of the people in the terrain park just pizza over the jumps, get zero air, and still bust there ass.

While it is smaller than bristol, it has a great family feel and it does offer a lot. If you don't do pipe you won't know the difference. It's such a great place and everyone is always friendly and polite, something you don't get with the bigger resorts in the area. Definite a mountain to go to.
