I ve been skiing at Beech Mountain about 10 times over the last 20 years and normally enjoy it. However, while skiing today with my 7 year old daughter, we were almost hit / run over by careless riders. Let me be clear, these were not beginner riders, these were capable riders but just didn t care. I actually witnessed a young girl, who was the down hill snowboarder, get run over and the offending snowboarder give them them the finger, yell at them, cuss them and bolt down the hill. There was no ski patrol presence on the mountain in key areas and no speed control whatsoever. If you have children, go to Sugar, where they actually enforce good mountain etiquette. Very disappointed customer Beech.
