It's Time to Plan Your Ski Vacation

November 8, 2008

A visit to Ski Beech these days will confirm the rumors across the mountain...a lot is happening and it's all good!

Snow blowers are ready to go when temperatures permit.
A lot of training, painting, refurbishing and moving things around is going on at Ski Beech.
We hear that the Beech Tree will be geared up with food, music and fun for the season.

The skate rentals are located within the same space as a cafe so you can grab a hot chocolate and something light to eat while getting ready to skate.


The exterior of many of the buildings have been painted or new siding put on.

The tunnel under the View Haus is completely painted with murals that are simply awesome!

Even the area leading to the restrooms has not been overlooked for mural spaces.

Our First Snow of the Season

October 28, 2008


This female cardinal does not seem to mind the cold. The 3" of snow that we received between the night of the 27th and day of the 28th sure was pretty.


The distant farms outside of Banner Elk did not get as much snow as Beech Mountain but it still made nice views.


This titmouse and other birds were glad to find some seed amongst all that cold white stuff.


It was nice while it lasted. We are looking forward to getting a blizzard now!
