5 White Grass is situated on over 2,500 acres of private, state, and federal lands within the Cabin Mtn. range of West Virginia s high Allegh-enies. We pick up much of our snow off the Great Lakes whenever strong northwesterly winds drop out of Canada. Originally built as the Weiss Knob Ski Bob and Anita operated 4 rope tows, a primitive snow making system, and a small cafe. XC skiers moved in 1979 restoring the building, Trails , and slopes. The Randall Reed family owns much of the property we ski upon and we thank them for allowing us to do so.
