- Min temp: 1.6 °c
Most of the front of the mountain is rated blue, providing great intermediate terrain that holds its snow well due it its northerly aspect.
There is also one of the world’s best freestyle zones served by the Vista Express chairlift and steeper, long blacks off the Backside – served by two fast quads.
For accommodation, you can either stay in the purpose-built base village, or in one of the smart hotel complexes further up the hill. There is also the option to stay down in either Truckee or on the shores of Lake Tahoe itself in Kings Beach. Getting here is fairly simple from either San Francisco or Reno and it is a great option to combine a stay here with time at another Tahoe resort – such as Palisades Tahoe or Heavenly.

Snow Overview
USA
Updated 30/12
Temperatures remain comparatively high on the Left Coast as their poor start to the season continues. The freezing line will sit around midmountain level at most places across the PNW, Frontier Ranges and Tetons, demonstrating how widespread this bad start is. Things do turn colder as the weekend approaches, and with it a few flurries of snowfall, but nothing much to write home about.
The Ice Coast continues to experience bitterly cold conditions, with daytime highs of -18°C (-3°F) expected in parts at times. Flurries of snow will be found overnight, meaning tracks should hopefully freshen up for the new day!
