Squaw
Valley, California
Situated at the end of a stunning alpine valley surrounded by six towering
Sierra peaks, Squaw Valley USA is one of the most sought-after winter destinations
in the U.S. And no wonder! Site of the 1960 World Olympics, with more skiable
terrain (a whopping 4000 acres) than any other resort in Tahoe and some of
the deepest snow in the world, Squaw Valley is known for its challenging runs
by ski enthusiasts around the world.
At Squaw Valley USA, you'll not only get lots of snow-450+ inches a year-but plenty of California sunshine as well. With almost 300 days of sun each year, Squaw Valley USA offers a definite antidote to those winter blues.
Besides its legendary terrain, Squaw Valley hosts a variety of winter activities including dog sledding, sleigh rides and snow tubing. Summer time fun includes ice skating, star-gazing, swimming, and tennis.
Other unique features include North America's only Funitel Gondola and an aerial cable car that takes visitors up to High Camp, a year round paradise complete with mountain top Olympic-sized Ice Skating Pavilion, Swimming Lagoon & Spa, Olympic museum, restaurants and snow tubing.
