That, however, is just one way to admire the fall colors in Western Pennsylvania. How about a visit to one of the local farms, a tradition for many Pittsburghers, that offers hay rides to the pumpkin patch?
Fall hiking in Pittsburgh just might be the very best way to see the fall colors in Western Pennsylvania. One of the prettiest fall hikes in Pittsburgh can be found in Frick Park. The Lower Riverview Trail, which spans just one mile, will take you under canopies of colorful trees. For both picturesque views of the fall foliage and a beautiful waterfall, set off on the one-mile Fall Run Trail at Fall Run Park in Glenshaw. During these uncertain times, please keep safety in mind and consider adding destinations to your bucket list to visit at a later date.

Those are all in New England. But it is the sort of property Vail covets: busy, built-out, established, and stable.
The high base elevation helps. And, like all of these resorts — which sit within 12 miles of one another as the crow flies — it is close enough to big cities to make a viable weekend trip: an hour from Pittsburgh, three hours and change from Cleveland, Baltimore, and Washington, D. Combine that with four Vail Ohio ski areas to the west and five Pennsylvania ski areas to the east, and Epic just became the default megapass for every skier from D.

Although the sport saw unprecedented growth in skier attendance and Laurel could still beat Seven Springs attendance 3, to 1, on a boom Sunday as late as , overall attendance at Laurel declined. Laurel first chairlift was installed at Laurel Mountain in Despite this long-awaited modern lift the bad news was just beginning at Laurel. Bankruptcy proceedings followed legal fights to terminate the lease and a threatened closure by the state, Patterson won a counter suit and maintained control of Laurel.

Hidden Valley has the kind of layout that makes it ski big: three distinct terrain pods across two peaks.
