Default snowboarding close to florida?

hey guys and gals,

well i live in florida right now but i am moving to colorado next summer. but i have to get thru this season first. so my questions is what places are are the closest to florida? my kid has been hammering about taking him skiing. i never take him with me when i go west so i am trying to find a place to take him with out spending a butt load. i did look on line but i have never been to any of them. any help would be cool. oh the places i saw on line were in georgia.

thanks

The only place I can think of is called "nowhere even remotely close to Florida".

Sorry man, NRG is probalby right NC and WV. I would go surfing or scuba diving instead this year. I am pretty sure it'll snow during the 08-09 season too...

Default The Two Best/Closest

Snow Mountain in Western North Carolina is a cool place to hit up on a long week end but you'll have one hell of a drive to make with two kids... Beach Mountain is close too.
It's in blowing rock, North Carolina. I have been to both and Snow was the best of the two but they are the closest that i would recommend.

thanks justin,

you would be surprised with driving with my boys. we just back from d.c. a couple of weeks ago and they were troopers about it. this trip will just be me and the five year old. give him his gameboy and a dvd player and he is good to go. thanks for the spots.
