Squaw Valley is the largest and probably
the most popular north Lake Tahoe ski area. It offers a great variety of terrain and is
well known for its advanced and expert runs. Beginners seem to like this place too because
the easiest slopes are located up at 8200'. Squaw is not particularly strong on long
intermediate "cruise" runs. However, if you like steeps, bowls or bumps, this is
the best place to go in the north Tahoe area. Experts should check out the KT-22 and
Granite Chief lifts. Intermediate favorites tend to be the Siberia and Shirley Lake lifts.
Squaw Valley is a good place to go if you've got non-skiers with you. Non-skiers can ride
the cable car to the High Camp Bath & Tennis Club at 8200'. There is an outdoor ice
skating rink and bungee jumping tower there, as well as several bars and restaurants with
outstanding views of the Sierras.
