Squaw has been the gold standard in North Tahoe (and really all of Tahoe) for the last 30 years. With incredible pipes and parks, in addition to a huge variety of terrain, Squaw is tough to beat. The one problem is that the top part of the mountain is closed during big storms. The upside is that there is untracked pow up to 3 days after big dumps.

A lot of terrain and a healthy amount of advanced runs. My complaint about this place is that it frequently gets hit hard by wind...and when it's nice out, lift lines are long (but, maybe that's true everywhere). Crowd can be on the pretentious side. If you have a few dollars to burn, the Squaw Creek Lodge is pretty tight.

Squaw is a sick overall resort that offers great freeriding terrain as well as killer parks and pipes. The new village is bringing in a ton of people but has some good restaurants if you stay there.

This mountain is huge! Really great spot for boarders of all levels. It's a little pricey, but worth the money!

was at Squaw on Sunday. Gorgeous day, plenty of snow but starting to soften up a bit due to Spring-like temps. Overall, an awesome day! Hoping the snow hangs in there or we get some more!
