You don't have to travel to the Rockies for great skiing. The mountains of the Northeast -- Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and Connecticut -- offer downhill runs every bit as exciting as those in Vail and Tahoe. Surprisingly, you'll find some excellent downhill and cross country skiing as far south as Pennsylvania and New Jersey, less than a day's drive from many Midwest and Eastern Seaboard states.
The Poconos are a true year-round vacation destination. From your Poconos timeshare, you can enjoy hiking, biking and boating in the summer. The views are breathtaking in the fall when the mountains erupt in a never-ending riot of color. And winter brings deep, powdery snows perfect for downhill and cross country skiing. You can enjoy everything the Poconos have to offer from your timeshare at Ridge Top Village or Ridge Top Summit in Shawnee, Pennsylvania (see photos).
Nestled in the forested hills along the scenic Delaware River, this 2,200-acre resort features exciting downhill runs, exhilarating cross country treks, even a ski school for those who need to learn the ropes or want to improve their form. The onsite recreation center includes a fully equipped exercise room, sauna, Jacuzzi and indoor pool to keep your muscles limbered up when you're not on the slopes. Snow tubing, ice skating, daily scheduled activities and a children's play area provide fun for the whole family. Click the post title to preview other Poconos resorts.
