Any one visited any mountain cities nearby for vacationing in summer, while in California, we used to visit Lake Tahoe in Summer... I really miss the driving up in mountain.

Any mountain cities near by.. I found the following but not sure about them.

Closest mountain peak Mount Pisgah (Pennsylvania) (United States) 308 km
Second closest mountain peak Bald Eagle Mountain (United States) 336 km
Third closest mountain peak Mount Nittany (United States) 351 km
Fourth closest mountain peak Forkston Mountain (United States) 369 km
Fifth closest mountain peak Red Rock Mountain (United States) 370 km

You touched my nerve. Having been lived in BC and travelled through West Coast (Washington, Oregon, CA), mountains fascinate me more than any other natural phenomena and beauty. So, I can understand where you're coming from. However, nothing can match BC's beautiful mountains in the whole of Canada (or for that matter US).

There's one beautiful mountain range in Quebec named as 'The Laurentian Mountains'. I don't know about this place except for Google. Little far from Toronto, but I am sure the visit is worth the time and effort.

Please update this if you come across any more scenic mountain range.

Mt Tremblant was were my colleagues used to go to, for their ski trips.

Febpreet, how much would a train ride -Van to Banff- cost?

So far no luck. I'm being directed to Mount Tremblant, as it wouldn't give me an opportunity to drive in the mountain, I am not going to like it.

Pocono mountains and Smoky mountains could be the next choice for now.. but they are far...

Goshhh.. I've started missing Tahoe... that was reachable in three hours.
