Winter Update on Squaw Valley USA

Thanksgiving typically marks the beginning of the early ski season or pre-season. So what is happening here at Squaw Valley? Snowmaking has begun in the following areas, Papoose Learning Area by the snowtubing lift, Children's World, and Exhibition Lift. No lift opening information is available at this point from Squaw Valley but the temps are cold enough for overnight snowmaking to be possible. There is still natural snow from the last round of winter storms to hit Tahoe and there is some more snow in the 10 day forecast. Stay tuned for information about skiing and riding possibilities for Thanksgiving weekend.


The Village is a great place to be for Thanksgiving. 1 Bedroom condominium suites have full size kitchens with ovens, refrigerator and freezer, dishwashers and all the serving utensils you need to cook a Thanksgiving dinner for the entire family. 1 Bedroom suites begin at only $179/nt and longer stay discounts are available over that time. Restaurants in Squaw Valley and North Lake Tahoe will be offering special Thanksgiving dinner menus if you prefer to dine out. We hope to see you up here for the holidays.
