Elk Mountain

Mia Bullaro, a snowboarder, says “I love snowboarding because it’s such an adrenaline rush and this year my skill has really improved a lot. I like checking out new mountains all the time but Elk is by far my favorite so far. The ski lifts are super long and the views are so pretty on them. There are so many different trails which gives me an option whether I wanna hit some jumps, take a nice scenic route, or tear up a black diamond. There’s also a hidden cliff jump in the woods that was super fun. It’s three hours away from home but it’s definitely worth the drive. I spent 12 hours there and was sad when it was time to leave. The snow was perfect all day and it never even got icy”.
