My New Orleans
12/31/2020
Travelers this time of year are usually looking to escape Carnival. While there’s not much to escape from this year, there’s still the invigorating slopes for those looking to getaway. Many New Orleanians head west to the Rockies, but great skiing and other winter attractions exist to the east in North Carolina and many times it’s more affordable.
Three major ski resorts lie within 50 miles of each other in North Carolina’s High Country, about a five-hour drive from Atlanta, and all offer different experiences. In fact, North Carolina owns the highest ski areas and the largest snow tubing on the East Coast.
