Review of Cataloochee ski area

MUST READ! I've been snowboarding for many years,...

MUST READ! I've been snowboarding for many years, and I have to say... this was the WORST place I've ever been! If you like snowboarding on pure ICE then this is your place. Do yourself a huge favor and go to appalachian ski resort. I've been there many times and have never had to deal with ICE. This place is poorly managed, and extremely dangerous. Also, they advertise a terrain park, but they NEVER set it up. AND, They advertise tubing, huh... don't make me laugh. It's just a tiny hill with snow and ICE, and also very dangerous. We went to check it out, and only one person was tubing. Well, He wasn't tubing when we saw him. He was sprawled out on the ice with an injury. He ended up leaving in an ambulance. Needless to say, we passed on the tubing. What a joke this place is. I would give it a zero, but it's not an option. If you're a beginner I would not recommend this place due to the ice. Save yourself the aggravation, a trip to the ER, and wasted money! Go to Appalachian. You'll thank me later... I promise!
