Fails WP:Notability. Page creator declined PROD with explanation that it contains a notable ski resort. Even if the ski resort is notable, it does not confer notability on the greater community. The community itself is not a municipality or unincorporated place but a real estate development. If the ski resort is notable, make an article, but I don't see how this particular development is notable. Safiel (talk) 05:13, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

As for real place, in addition to being well known regionally as "Wolf Laurel", as evidenced by the above post with respect to news and published articles, the NOAA, National Weather service forecast grids also designate the area as Wolf Laurel Powderrider (talk) 03:15, 1 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Wolf Ridge Ski Resort or Mars Hill, NC. "Wolf Laurel" appears to be an unofficial name used by local residents for the area near Mars Hill. USPS has no record of Wolf Laurel either as an official or vanity name.   RadioFan (talk) 02:24, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
