Area Description
Wisp now offers 32 trails and 13 lifts. As if that were
not enough, Wisp doesn't plan to stand pat on
growth. They have future expansion plans that
include a mountaintop village, a redesigned golf
course, an Adventure Sports Center, and a Lakeside
Club. Wisp Resort is rapidly growing into the
mid-Atlantic's finest four-season resort community!
Wisp is pumping up the fun even more with the
addition of one expert, seven beginner and two
intermediate trails, and that allows North Camp to
offer excitement for skiers and boarders of every
level. With more than 100" of natural snowfall per
season, Wisp offers great Cross Country skiing as
well.
Wisp has also added two new quad chairlifts during
the 2005-2006 off season that increase their lift
capacity and that decreases your time on the slopes.
Snowboarders rate Wisp as one of the best terrain
parks anywhere. They actually offer TWO terrain
parks and a halfpipe that is 400 feet long. Tubing is
also great fun at Wisp with tubing lanes measuring a
whopping 750 feet! (This is unquestionably the best
tubing park in the region!)

What's New at Wisp Resort for 2006-2007
We had the pleasure of visiting Wisp last January
and while they made these amazing upgrades prior
to last season, they bear repeating for those that
didn't visit Wisp last season. Hint: Make plans to try
Wisp this season!
By any standards, a 40% expansion in skiable
acreage is an aggressive undertaking. But that's
what Wisp did when they added their North Camp
terrain last season. Additionally, they have what has
to be one of the top (if not the top) snowmaking
plants and infrastructure in the Mid Atlantic and
Southeast region.
The system has a pumping capacity of approximately
15,000 gallons per minute from a new 10 million
gallon reservoir.
Even more important, the snowmaking project
enabled Wisp Resort to open on schedule for skiing
and snowboarding in December 2005, providing
excellent conditions. With fine snow base, Wisp
extended their season into April, exceeding
expectations for snow production and quality.

Automation is Key
Wisp Resort now operates with full automation of
pump stations, trail lighting, cameras and
snowmaking equipment. The system relies on a new
fiber optic network and Allen Bradley programmable
logic controllers for comprehensive ski area
management, including building and slop lighting,
HVAC control, lift monitoring, electric power
monitoring, weather updates, security and webcam
feeds.
On the slopes, a series of computerized weather
stations measure temperature, wind direction and
speed, as well as humidity. The central processor
then dictates water flow and pressure to a total of
more than 250 snowmakers to deliver the optimum
snow consistency.
The snowmaking expansion features 113 new Viking
SnowtowersTM from SMI.
