It’s the snowiest January North Lake Tahoe has seen in over 45 years! Here are some top reasons to get up there this winter:

Best Conditions + Variety: The snow conditions are the best they’ve been in years, and North Lake Tahoe has North America’s most concentrated selection of ski resorts. More than 136 ski lifts and 347 runs are open across the North Shore.

Best Winter Adventures: There’s a lot more than just downhill skiing! Snowshoe by the lake, cross-country ski to a warming hut with sensational Sierra views, or try something totally new, like snow-biking!

Best Après Scene: It’s okay to admit that you enjoy the après as much as the ski day! North Lake Tahoe has a variety of vibes for your après tastes—from kicking back at a fire pit during sunset, to toasting your friends at a lively lakefront restaurant, or sinking into your own private soaker with a glass of bubbly.
