Squaw Valley

REVIEWS

Squaw Valley is one of the largest ski resorts in the Lake Tahoe area, catering to all levels of skiers. It offers beginning level skiing at the top of the mountain, so if you are just starting out, you won't be left with the slush at the bottom of the mountain. While the beginner facilities are good, most of Squaw Valley's terrain is geared towards higher level skiing. Once the home of the winter Olympics, Squaw Valley offers a spectacular range of upper intermediate and advanced territory. Runs of the KT-22, Granite Chief, and Headwall lifts are particularly well loved by regular visitors to Lake Tahoe. In addition, Squaw offers a large range of facilities. They have everything that you might need for both ski and apres ski activities. After skiing, there is a wide range of things to do, ranging from driving to Reno for a show or some gambling to staying at the resort for drinks or night life. Although the price is a bit steep in comparison to other ski resorts in the area, it is certainly worth it Squaw is an excellent ski resort, and while it's facilities are as good as anywhere else around, it is geared towards the serious skier. People who go to Squaw go to ski, not to sit around in the lodge and take a couple of runs a day.
