RECENTLY NAMED one of Lehigh Valley’s Top 10 Fastest Growing Companies, winner of the Who’s Who in Business, and numerous other awards throughout the year, Blue Mountain Resort is quickly becoming a leading four-season resort in Eastern Pennsylvania. Known mainly as a premier ski and snowboard destination in Northeast Pennsylvania, Blue Mountain continues to add “green season” amenities that rival its winter business. Blue Mountain is home to 164 acres of skiable terrain and boasts the highest vertical drop in the state at 1,082 feet. In addition to the 40 ski trails, 16 lifts and up to 39 tubing lanes, Blue Mountain maintains a full service mountain top restaurant, 26 lift access bike trails recently named one of the top five best bike parks in the mid-Atlantic southeast region by mtbparks.com, there are three disc golf courses, four ropes courses, and three outdoor laser tag fields. The resort hosts weddings, corporate meetings, teambuilding, camping, glamping and special events. The vision began in the early 1960’s when Ray Tuthill purchased more than 300 acres of land with dreams of opening a ski area. Fifteen years later the first five trails were opened to guests and the ski hill was named “Little Gap.” In the early 1980s, Little Gap continued to expand, doubled its terrain and took on another investor, Bruce Ebert. In the late 80s “Little Gap Ski Area” was renamed “Blue Mountain.” In 2007, Tuthill passed away, and his daughter, Barbara Green stepped in as President. Under her leadership, the resort has invested over $15 million to improve the slope side relaxation and dining experience. Three new lodges were built, one at the Summit and two in the Valley. In conjunction with the lodges, Slopeside Pub & Grill, a new full-service indoor/outdoor restaurant was also built. Blue Mountain Resort is conveniently located 90 minutes from both Philadelphia and New York City. The mountain typically attracts winter visitors from within a two- to three-hour radius.

Last week, we were fortunate enough to have a visit from Enzo Ferrante, a certified pizziaiolo. Enzo led a demonstration of crafting authentic Neapolitan pizza with fresh ingredients in our new Wood Fired Pizza oven. We are lucky to have Enzo visit as he is one of 14 pizziaiolos in the country. Our chefs are ready to take on the heat in the kitchen and create irresistibly tasty pizza this summer at Wood Fired Pizza & Pub. #BlueMyMind #SlopesidePubandGrill #KSLResorts #Pizza #Chef
Lost and Found items are never truly lost. Throughout the winter season guests lose and leave behind things like gloves, jackets, snow pants, etc.- and don’t return to claim them. These lost items are given a second life thanks to our partnership with the Pennsylvania State Police and St. Luke’s University Health Network. Pieces of winter clothing are cleaned up and washed before being ready to donate. Over 8 bags of clothing were recently picked up by the Pennsylvania State Police and were distributed to various shelters around the community. Thank you to our partners for putting these forgotten items to greater use! #BlueMyMind #MyStLukes #Community #Donate #KSLResorts
As we bid farewell to Earth Month, we're excited to share how even the largest snowmaking system in the East can contribute to energy conservation. Our ongoing investments towards upgrading our snowmaking system not only help us produce more snow, but also makes snow by using less energy. Our latest snow guns use 5% less energy compared to our older snow guns – which means we can make snow on an entire trail with the same energy once used to power just one snow gun. We have also worked to make most of our snow guns fully automated. This means they will automatically adjust to the temperature and humidity while allowing us to make the best quality snow with the least amount of energy needed. At Blue Mountain and KSL Resorts we continue to act On Purpose to protect the environment of our planet and provide the best environment to our guests. Here's to a Happy Earth Month and a continued commitment to sustainable practices! #BlueMyMind #KSLResorts #EarthMonth #Sustainability
