    Zermatt Review

    Pros: Huge, Lots of fun cruising runs, Family friendly, and Fun town.

    Cons: Nothing overly challenging, & expensive.

    Fantastic resort. Combined with the Italian terrain of Bruil-Cervinia and Valtournenche, it is an enormous alpine area that is completely connected. You can ski from the Rothorn Paradise to the Matterhorn Glacier... Full review

    Cons: No truely advanced runs, New base area is contrived Colorado Mega-Resort copy

    I love this mountain. I've been skiing here since I was 4. It has to be one of the best place for people to learn how to ski. Wide variety of terrain... Full review

    Squaw Valley USA Review

    Pros: Challenging lines, One of the best resorts anywhere in the world, Olympics!

    Cons: No Apres-Ski, but that's not why people go to Tahoe.

    Best mountain in Tahoe, hands down, no contest. Massive amount of terrain, variety of terrain: everything from the most extreme 'in-bounds off-piste' skiing (Palisades) to an extensive beginner program, and awesome powder.... Full review

    Alpine Meadows Review

    Pros: Excellent terrain - varied and challenging, Hikable bowls, Not a 'Scene'

    Cons: Not very big

    Fantastic tahoe ski area. While it is not as expansive or hyped up as Squaw or Heavenly, it does the important things correctly. Diverse and challenging terrain, hikable 'in-bounds off-piste' bowls, and... Full review
