I'll be on vacation near McHenry, MD this summer and looking at three resorts to ride. I might get 2 days of riding, but probably only one so I'm looking for advice.
Wisp will probably be about 10-15 minutes away.
Seven Springs about an hour.
Timberline about an hour the other way.
I went to Wisp 3 or 4 years ago for a day and had fun, but would have like a few more trail options. I liked the manmade features at the top of the hill and I think I ran most of the trails there except for double-blacks.
I am intermediate ability on an '08 SX Trail (not a full DH bike). I like medium tabletops and drops. I like both groomed and natural terrain, but not a big fan of super-chunky natural rock gardens or (too) steep fall-line trails. Tempest, Breakout, and Salvation are my favorite Mountain Creek trails. At Blue, I like Miles of Smiles, Ewok Village, and King Tut.
So how can I make the most of my day? If I can get two days, what should my second day be? I'd love to go back to Snowshoe (for the first time in like 8 years) but I'm limiting myself to about an hour drive.
Thanks!
