  Squaw Valley USA Review

  by govey80 - Dec 14, 2007

  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.

  Pros: Gorgeous, varied terrain, long runs, nightlife, swimming lagoon, it's just huge

  Cons: commercialized, crowded, impersonal service

  Real Terrain for Real Skiers

  by alieber - Apr 15, 2009

  Pros: Steeps, Long Runs, Lots of Variety

  Cons: Heavy, Sticky Sierra Cement

  Squaw Valley boasts the widest assortment of advanced terrain anywhere in the Lake Tahoe area. This is not a mountain for beginners -- to be sure, there's a fair amount of green... Full review
