    I’ve never skied Whitetail, but I’ve been to Liberty four times so far. I just got back from there about 20 minutes ago actually. For beginners, it makes zero difference which one you go to. They are so close together, I’d just go to the one that’s the shortest drive, as they are owned by the same folks, they beginner programs are exactly the same. I can’t say which one is more picturesque, but from the top of Liberty you can see Three Mile Island, so it’s a great view.

    White tail has a few more trails than Liberty, but for a newbie skier, this makes no difference, as you’ll probably stay on the beginner slope anyway. The only thing I’ve really heard about Whitetail is that they have less ice, but as they are so close together, I really don’t know why or how one could have better snow, as it’s all machine made anyway.

    So, pick one, and go have some fun! Just remember to concentrate first on learning to turn, NOT going fast down the hill.

    I think that Whitetail is better, i have raced there and the beginner slope looked nice. Considering i race, ive never been on it though. Liberty on a good day is fun, but i would stick with whitetail. Have fun and be careful :)
