What is the closest ski resort to Lynchburg VA?

Wintergreen Resort in Wintergreen, VA is about 40-45 miles north of Lynchburg. Take Route 29 north just north of Amherst to Route 151 north, turn left. Follow Route 151 for 21 miles to Route 664. Turn left and Wintergreen is 4 miles ahead on Route 664.

Wintergreen might be a bit closer, but Snowshoe would be your best choice in that area and it's not much farther.

I've been to both, and they're both good. Wintergreen is closer, though.
