Long, hot central Virginia summers always leave us dreaming of snowy slopes. The Sandman delivers in the form of Nelson County’s Wintergreen Resort. Open for nearly 50 years, Wintergreen’s 11,000 acres features 26 ski slopes for varying expertise, a terrain park to test your skills, and a 12-lane tubing track (for those who are ready to take The Plunge). The top of the mountain breaks 3,500 feet in elevation, and offers an unparalleled view of the Blue Ridge—until you’re slicing down the hill, that is.
