We had an awesome time skiing for the day at Camelback Mountain in the Pocono Mountains area of Pennsylvania. Camelback has so many choices of trails to choose from, spanning all levels from beginners to double black diamond (not that we tried it. Maybe one day…). 

After getting our gear, we headed to one of the smaller hills for the beginners to practice on and warm up. The bunny slope was on a hill near the outdoor water park. It was funny to have a view of an outdoor  water park while skiing in the snow. The many mountains framed in the distance added a beautiful scenic touch.

The next hill we headed to was different than what we’d seen before. On that hill we did not go up a lift first but rather we started at the top of the beginner’s slope and skied down. At the bottom we got onto the lift back up to the beginning.

After that we headed up to the top of the mountain. We stuck to the easier level trails but had an amazing time. The mountain was nice and tall. It took about 15 minutes just to get up with the lift. 

We enjoyed the trails immensely. They were not too difficult for us but not either short and too easy.

Camelback has approximately ten different trails to choose from aside for the bunny slopes.

For those who don’t ski, Camelback has a snow tubing park a couple of minutes away.

It was hard for us to leave after just a few hours. There was so many more trails we wanted to try.

The ski slopes are located a part of Camelback Resort with many resort amenities. We only had time for a day trip but the resort definitely seemed like a place I would want to visit for a few days and have the enjoyment of skiing for longer.
