"BrainsPennsylvania isn't just the Keystone State-it's the epicenter of Epic Pass ski resorts in the Mid-Atlantic. With eight Vail-owned resorts under the Epic umbrella- Seven Springs, Hidden Valley, Laurel Mountain, Liberty Mountain, Roundtop Mountain, Whitetail Resort, and Jack Frost Big Boulder -PA packs more Epic options into one state than any other in the region. Sure, the Midwest edges it out with around 10 Epic Pass resorts, and the Northeast ties at eight."
"Pennsylvania's compact geography gives skiers and snowboarders the chance to hit all eight resorts, which are drivable end-to-end in under five hours. The longest trip is from Seven Springs to Jack Frost, which is about 280 miles and 4.5 hours, per driving estimates. Fun fact: PA's no slouch in the stats game. It's the fifth-most populous state in the U.S. with over 13 million residents, trailing California, Texas, Florida, and New York, per 2025 U.S. Census estimates."
"Accessibility, easy traveling, and saving time matter. Pennsylvania has about 2.65 miles of road per square mile, ranking sixth nationally. All that infrastructure means these resorts are ridiculously accessible from major metros like Philly, NYC, DC, Baltimore, and Pittsburgh. Which means there are no long drives required, and more time on the slopes."
