Wisp Ski Trail Map - Layered Wood Wall Art
by Mountaincut
Maryland's only ski resort, on the shores of Deep Creek Lake, now on your wall. Mountaincut's Wisp Ski Trail Map is a layered wooden wall art piece featuring hand-traced ski trails expertly laser cut from premium birch and/or walnut plywood, a handcrafted tribute to the Allegheny Mountains resort that has been Maryland's winter destination since 1955.
The Free State's Only Mountain, Captured in Wood
Set on Marsh Mountain in McHenry, Maryland, near the northern shore of Deep Creek Lake in Garrett County, close to the borders of West Virginia and western Pennsylvania, Wisp Resort has been Maryland's only downhill ski area since it opened in the winter of 1955, making it one of the oldest southern ski areas in the country. From a base of 2,415 feet to a summit of 3,115 feet, Wisp delivers a 700-foot vertical drop across 132 to 172 acres, with 33 to 34 trails and roughly 11 miles of skiing served by 12 lifts, including two quad chairs, five triple chairs, and multiple conveyors. Averaging around 65 to 100 inches of natural snow a year, backed by an extensive 90% snowmaking system, this handcrafted map captures every trail across Marsh Mountain in beautiful layered wood relief.
Every Trail, Every Overlook, Every Memory
Wisp's terrain is nearly evenly split, with roughly 24-35% beginner, 38-45% intermediate, and 27-30% advanced, giving families and mixed-ability groups a genuinely well-rounded mountain. The terrain here mixes wooded glades, open ridgelines, and scenic overlooks of Deep Creek Lake spread out below, and while Wisp doesn't offer expansive bowls or extreme chutes, the variety across its slopes makes it easy to mix up the day, cruising groomers one run and exploring the black diamonds the next. Three terrain parks are redesigned throughout the season by Wisp's staff, and with 90% of the mountain lit, night skiing runs Tuesday through Sunday for locals and visitors chasing extra laps after dark. Beyond the slopes, an 11-lane Bear Claw Snow Tubing Park, a year-round mountain coaster, and scenic chairlift rides overlooking the lake and mountainside make Wisp a genuine four-season destination, drawing skiers from Pittsburgh, Washington, D.C., and everywhere in between.
Exceptional Craftsmanship, Made in the USA
All Mountaincut wooden trail maps are precision laser cut and etched, hand-stained, and finished in the United States using birch and/or walnut plywood. The two-layer construction creates a rich, dimensional look where the mountain's ridgeline and trail network stand out in beautiful relief. Hanging hardware comes preinstalled, so your new trail map will be on display in minutes.
Because each piece is crafted from real wood, no two maps are exactly alike, with natural variations in the grain and stain giving every piece its own character, just like a crisp evening under the lights above Deep Creek Lake.
The Perfect Gift for Wisp Devotees
Whether you learned to ski here as a kid, cruised the ridgelines with the lake spread out below, spent your winter nights under the lights, tubed down the Bear Claw Park with the family, or have been making the trip to Deep Creek Lake season after season, this map is a lasting reminder of Maryland's one and only mountain.
