Urban Skiing in Pittsburgh

We picked four spots that we thought would be great to show off to Pittsburgh. The first were Pitt rails, on a nice sloped hillside up behind the chem building (near Peterson). The second was ‘Wilshire Park’ [sic], a recreation-center in Upper St. Clair with nice down rails and, again, sloped in-run.

“The third spot was something special. My friend Nick Yourd, (works at Willi’s ski shop on Castle Shannon) proposed that there was enough snow to do a powder-skiing type descent of Mount Washington. Right near the incline…

“Finally, Joe Montana bridges was the same deal, probably a first descent (make that definitely haha) but we hiked it, skied it, got some powder turns, and all-in-all had a great day.”
