The slopes at Canaan Valley Ski Area, located at Canaan Valley State Park, look northward across the Canaan Valley and the vale of the Blackwater River, an outdoor-recreation destination that the resort shares with two other ski areas and a national wildlife refuge. Part of Canaan Valley Resort State Park, the ski area has been attracting vacationers to the valley since the 1970s.
