Skiing in the Buckeye State

Over the course of his career as an Ohio-based business executive, Theodore “Ted” Catino has led companies focused on automotive financing, investments, and technology. Outside of his professional activities, Ted Catino spends his free time traveling, riding motorcycles, and skiing. 

Despite its modest elevation, Ohio offers several resorts for those who enjoy skiing, snowboarding, and tubing. With verticals ranging from 175 to 300 feet, Ohio’s ski resorts are perfect for beginning and intermediate skiers, but those with more advanced skills will also find plenty of opportunities to enjoy themselves. 

One of the state’s most popular ski destinations is Mad River Mountain, a resort that features 20 trails that cut through 144 skiable acres. Since its opening in 1962, the resort has grown to include the most expansive area of skiing terrain in the state. It is also home to Avalanche Tubing Park, Ohio’s largest tubing destination. 

In addition to Mad River Mountain, skiers in Ohio can go to Snow Trails and Alpine Valley. The area around Cleveland features the resorts of Boston Mills and Brandywine, which are only five minutes away from each other by car.
