Tannersville, PA — The perception of a ski resort can change in a short amount of time. That’s what Jason Bays and the team at Camelback Mountain have pulled off. Highlights from last winter included getting rid of paid parking, transparent video updates, opening in November, and concluding their season in May.
This week, Camelback Resort revealed its new trail maps, which show off its new trails. This includes three new trails, plus several additions that allow for better communication to guests about potential closures.
Here’s the 2025-26 trail map:
And, drumroll please… here’s the 2026-27 map:
The New Trails
Three new trails will debut this winter. Under the Stevenson lift line is Pokawachne Pass, a ripping double black diamond. Pokawachne is the Munsen tribes name for the Poconos. Under the Black Bear Six lift line, Evergreen Valley is a black diamond that follows the path of the old alpine slide, so expect fun twists and turns. Located off Upper Cleopatra, Rabbit Hole will be Camelback’s narrowest intermediate trail. With both sides lined with majestic evergreen trees, plus a secret hot chocolate shack, it’ll be a must-hit spot on your visit. All of these trails will have snowmaking. The names of the runs were picked by guests through a polling process.
The map also includes additions of trails meant to distinguish juncture points. For example, the lower portion of Nile Mile is now known as Trails End, which connects the juncture of three trails. Other examples of this include Old Shoulder and Racer’s Edge. While Camelback’s growing trail count is great for marketing purposes, it also improves communication with guests. Ski patrol and the resort’s marketing team can communicate closures more effectively, reducing guest confusion and keeping people out of areas they shouldn’t be.
Camelback’s opening date has yet to be announced, but they want to open as soon as possible.
