Squaw Valley

Squaw is super-cool! I love going into the shops there. The runs were okay, but some are kind of flat. We went up to the top of the mountain to go on some green trails, but the weather was really bad; it was super windy, and it was snowing really hard--the snow cut my face because I didn't have a face mask on. We had to leave the top of the mountain because of the weather and just went on the runs on the bottom. The runs on the bottom were cool, but some parts were really flat. If it wasn't for the weather, I would've had a much better time.

It was probably the best time of skiing of my life. My brother-in-law and I skied this mountain from the top to the bottom, did the half-pipe, terrain park (both of them), and challenged ourselves to the advanced-only trails. We will most definitely be back in 2006.

OVERWHELMING! I was overwhelmed by the size of this mountain. I'm a novice (blue trails are my friend), so I never thought I'd make it to the top. But once we reached the top, I was in LOVE! It was scenic, had great snow, and was lots of sun.

You'll think you own the mountain, there is so much mountain to cover. This mountain can handle it!

The snow was perfect. And the sun just made the day! For all you East Coasters - leave your warm coats behind and bring your sunscreen.

This mountain, as big as it is, is perfect for riders and skiers of all levels. But this mountain is a snowboarder’s dream – wide-open trails and bowls. You'll think you died and went to heaven.

From journal Squaw does not disappoint!

Kind of like Alta, everything you have heard about Squaw Valley is true. While a little crowded, it is big enough to find some acres for yourself. KT-22 offers some incredible terrain, and you never have to take the same run down. One of the best parts about the lift to KT-22 is that you can see nearly all of the runs/lines down the peak. Watch where others are venturing off to, find some hidden chutes, etc. If you want to avoid the crowds, head off to Granite Chief Peak, like we did. It's a kind of out-of-the-way peak on the upper mountain, off to the right, with some very nice blue cruisers and some diamond and tree skiing mixed in.

Overall, this is an excellent resort, ranked #4 on my list of ski areas in the west where I've skied.

I already told you this, but here it goes again. The snow conditions were fine, but there were not very many skiers (there were a few snowboarders). The kids are not here yet. We had a great day and can't wait to come back again.
