Timberline
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Timberline’s Summer ops are just a perk that no other areas have.
- Timberline definitely has the best lodge and customer experience, as well as the best food, but the terrain can get monotonous if you’re not into parks.
- I love Timberline!!!
- Timberline will be less crowded while Snowshoe has more typical ski resort amenities.
- For learning I'd take Timberline over Snowshoe.
Cons
- Timberline is smaller and has less advanced terrain than Meadows, and a more chill vibe in my experience. You also run the risk of having even less terrain if one or more of the lifts isn't running, which happens a lot.
- Just that it's more reliant on natural cover than T-line
- Timberline is kinda... boring. Definitely feels smaller than advertised. It's pretty much entirely intermediate terrain.
- Timberline is a boring beginner/intermediate ski resort. It only shines because of the summer skiing.

For reference, here is a picture from my camera roll of the most beautiful jump I have ever seen in my life (Timberline, camera doesn’t do it justice).
Timberline has recovered well under the Perfect management and is a great ski experience - finding somewhere to stay can be a bit of a challenge.
