BC skiing in Virginia?

i'm in Virginia, Richmond to be exact, and just visiting. does anyone know about backcountry skiing around the area? i've managed to locate the four "major" resorts within a 3-hours drive from Richmond, but i'm curious about the BC situation here. does it even exist? any help would be greatly appreciated, and thanks in advance.<br><br>-kam

its gotta be desparate times if PNW'ers are going to Virginia for turns. Its ass-backwards I say.

Hi Kam,<br><br>I have heard that there is some skiing around the Timberline ski resort in WV as well as the Dolly Sods wildnerness area (on a good year). Never experienced it myself though.<br><br>Michael

Skip: i meant "BackCountry" skiing, not "Boat-Controlled" skiing!<br><br>to my surprise, it snowed a few inches this morning in Richmond....but not enough to tour around town...
