Located just 5 minutes from it's world famous neighbor, Squaw Valley, Alpine Meadows Ski Resort has long been called the Tahoe local's choice. Alpine Meadows ski area offers skiers and riders a unique, "unfiltered", experience. While other resorts ramp up real estate, villages and shopping venues, Alpine Meadows sticks to the basics, offering up an incredible mountain, family friendly amenities, and a down home, local ambiance. With stashes of powder that last for days, off-piste access, and over 2400 acres of terrain, Alpine Meadows ranks among the best for a genuine Lake Tahoe skiing and boarding experience.

Factor in the family friendly lodge and ski school programs, and Alpine Meadows is great for all members of the family. This year Alpine will reinvent their terrain park to feature more "natural topography." With diverse terrain and incredible views of Lake Tahoe, Alpine comes alive during the spring. Laid back, with frequent deck events, Alpine's spring corn snow cannot be matched. Though there is no lodging at the base of the mountain, there are plenty of vacation homes and condos within a five minute drive, and it's only a few minutes to Olympic Valley or Tahoe City for some good eats, and plenty of Lake Tahoe hotels options. Check out the Alpine Club membership for reduced lift ticket prices, discounts on demos, rentals lessons, parking and more. Alpine is also well known for it's spring deck parties with live music, plenty of sun and of course great spring skiing! Check the Lake Tahoe events calendar for more info.
