It is worth the slightly longer drive (from the DC area) to go to Whitetail, instead of Liberty.

At least last weekend, Liberty had 4 of 7 runs open, whereas Whitetail had 7 of 7 runs open.

Whitetail is bigger.

Liberty has more beginners, although both places have a lot of beginners.

Our neighbor is an expert skier.  When he skies locally, he always prefers Whitetail over Liberty.[/quote]

From NoVA, drive to Whitetail is 15-20 min. longer. Whether one prefers Whitetail to Liberty is probably personal reference. I prefer Whitetail for longer runs so i can work on carving - I also like the express quad from the base to the top. I like Liberty for some of the side hits on the back side and the park setup, although Whitetail has raised its game this season with setting up the park along side Snowpark. (Speaking for me and 2 boys).[/quote]

The beginners area at WT has 2 lifts and is separated from the rest of the place. The middle lift (non-express) serves 2 greens and the park. 1 of the greens, Snowpark, is a good for progressing onto steeper blues. I do think the blues at WT are steeper than Liberty - WT just has more vertical than Liberty. Also, the blues are a bit more spread out at WT. At Liberty, when it gets crowded the back side (where the blues are) become a shit show.

one more follow-up. At Roundtop, the black, blues, and greens are more separated so my impression is that you don't get folks riding on top of each other in terms of varying abilities. Black are on the far left, blues in the middle, and greens are on the far right whereas at Liberty, the blues/blacks are a bit intertwined. WT is in the middle although most of the blues are separate from the blacks.[/quote]
