Sugar Bowl Ski Resort

At Sugar Bowl they're all excited about their new lodge and their new terrain park, designed by JP Martin. What else is up on this 8383 ft mountain? Lots of things. Sugar Bowl is very close to Downtown Truckee, which is one of the best places to get a hotel Last time we checked they were stoked about the crew at Sugar Bowl was promising a massive terrain park overhaul surprise and real railroad rails at Coldstream. Mountain Ski Pro Eric DesLaurers offers ski lessons and back country gliding to those who want to go become capable of moving beyond the groomed runs.

Sugar Bowl's history goes back 1938 and Walt Disney who was among the visionaries who helped pick this picture-perfect location, and placed upon it the first chair lift in California.

What Mr. Disney and his fellow adventurers found was a prime location near Donner Summit: a place of precipitous peaks, steep narrow chutes and wide open bowls. But more than that, they picked a spot that receives more snow than almost anywhere in North America. On average, receiving over 500 inches of feather-light snow per year. It also happened to be easier to get to than other sites in the Tahoe area.

Once you discover Sugar Bowl, you'll see how the same man who brought the Matterhorn to Southern California, out did himself with a grander, truer alpine experience in the Sierras. One with lots more fun and tons more snow. .

Sugar Bowl has a very deep history with grooming skiers for the Olympics.

Sugar Bowl is still the grande dame of Tahoe ski resorts. The snow-mantled peaks, the inspired terrain and challenging runs are as impressive as ever. The cherished Magic Carpet Gondola can still transport you from your car to an authentic alpine hide-away.
