Ghent, WV (WOAY) Winterplace Ski Resort is getting ready for the upcoming winter season with a number of improvements aimed at enhancing the guest experience.
The resort says its offseason projects include upgrades to snowmaking equipment, slope lighting, and chairlifts, along with new rental equipment and renovated guest facilities.
Winterplace has added ten new snow guns and replaced sections of its snowmaking pipeline. Additional chairlift maintenance and lighting improvements are also expected to support mountain operations.
Freestyle skiers and snowboarders will also have more options, with twelve new features added to the Heaven Holler terrain park.
Other changes include a new cashless payment system, more than $100,000 in new rental equipment, and improvements to the resort center, cafeteria, and other guest areas.
The resort is also offering new and returning ticket options, including season passes, flexible night-skiing packages and extended snow tubing sessions.
Winterplace will continue offering ski and snowboard lessons, youth programs, racing opportunities, live music and special events throughout the season.
General manager Josh Faber says the offseason investments are designed to improve everything from snow conditions and lift operations to rental services and guest amenities.
Winterplace traditionally opens for skiing in mid-December.
