Mother Nature graces
Blue Knob early and often with an average snowfall of 160 inches,
while smaller areas wait-out early and late season rains. This
allows some of the best snow conditions possible. Skiing is the
centerpiece of the winter season.
The Bedford Fall Foliage Festival, held the first 2 weekends in
October, also attracts more than 30,000 visitors annually. It offers
some 300 craftsmen, entertainment, great food and striking fall
colors.
