Sierra-at-Tahoe Ski Resort
2008/2009
[Lift Tickets, Equipment Rental,
Ski & Snowboard Lessons, Special Programs, Children's Center,
Day Care]`
Sierra-at-Tahoe, home to some of the finest tree skiing at Lake Tahoe,
has recently opened five backcountry access gates. The gates, accessed from the
top of Grandview chairlift, open the resort up to adventurous backcountry skiing
and snowboarding.
"Some of the chutes and terrain rivals the steepest terrain around Lake Tahoe,"
comments Sierra-at-Tahoe's Patrol Director, Robert Schultz. Not only does the
terrain provide more advanced skiing and snowboarding, but also offers the
remoteness and serenity easily appreciated in the Sierra Nevada.
Long known as the best place on
the mountain to ski, the West Bowl now offers more enticing reasons
to spend the day here. The West Bowl Smokehouse BBQ offers the best mesquite
tri-tip and ribs this side of Texas. The Cocktail waitresses in Chaps, a full
bar that Doc Holiday would be proud of, and the smell of hickory in the air - it
may seem like the OK Corral but between the beach chairs and the hot reggae
tunes, the style is definitely Californian.
Introducing the all NEW Burton Progression Park with boxes, jumps and
rails all located inches from the ground, perfect for those wanting to test
gravity one inch at a time. And with our Burton Learn-to-Ride programs, you'll
be jibbing and hucking in no time.
The South Shore Complimentary Shuttle is available daily, servicing
more than 40 casinos and lodging properties in South lake Tahoe, providing a
comfortable and convenient alternative to driving. For more information, please
call the Shuttle Bus Information at (530) 541-7548.
