Camelback Mountain Resort is a ski and snowboard resort located in the Pocono Mountains region in Pocono Township and Jackson Township, Monroe County, Pennsylvania, adjacent to, and partially within Big Pocono State Park. In the 1950s when developers were working to expand the original solitary ski run, they negotiated with the then PA DER for permission to use a small portion of the state park for the ski area in exchange for $1 a year and the obligation to maintain the entire park. Camelback Mountain (Big Pocono) itself reaches an elevation of 2,133 feet (650 m). There are 160 acres (56 hectares) of skiing & snowboarding terrain; the mountains have a total of 35 slopes (the longest of which is 1 mile(1,609 m), namely, the Nile Mile) and features a vertical drop of 800 ft (244 m), 15 lifts, including 2 high speed detachable chairlifts; the Sullivan Express and Stevenson Express, both quads. It is the largest ski resort in the Poconos. It has two terrain parks, the larger of which is now accessible only by ascertaining a park pass. Camelback also has the only Half Pipe in the Pocono Mountains. Camelback is also a member of the Burton Learn to Ride Program with a Learn To Ride Center, Freesyle Learn To Ride center, Women's Learn To Ride Center and Children's Learn to Ride Center. The resort was opened in December 1963. The mountain summit receives an average of 50 in (127 cm) of snowfall each winter. It has minimal snowmaking facilities on ski slopes, primarily relying on portable snow guns to create snow, and is 98% lit for night skiing.
