Whitetail Goes Geothermal

Since its opening, Whitetail Ski Resort in south central Pennsylvania has established a reputation for environmentalism. The resort has won awards for such environmental deeds as setting aside land for wildlife and wetlands protection, building a state-of-the-art wastewater reclamation system and installing an energy-efficient snowmaking control system. Not resting on any laurels, Whitetail management has gone a step further, implementing geothermal heating and cooling in new townhomes and becoming one of first ski areas in the country to use geothermal on a large scale.
