Squaw Opens For Winter

After much speculation and extensive snowmaking, Palisades Tahoe's 2014-15 season kicks-off Wednesday, November 26th, beginning with a grand weekend of events, activities and of course, skiing and riding.

After 6 inches of snow last week, and with forecasters are calling for snow early next week, and conditions favorable for snowmaking, Palisades Tahoe will open with one upper mountain run as well as numerous activities.

Currently scheduled for opening day:

• Funitel with access to Gold Coast lift (no mountain run access).
• SnoVentures with First Venture chairlift.
• Squaw Kids with Wiley carpet for lesson participants.
• Tucker carpet at SnoVentures.
• Snow tubing at SnoVentures 11am to 4pm.
• Ice skating at High Camp 11am to 4pm .
• Aerial Tram for sightseeing with dogs on leashes still permitted
• Silvey's and Bar North open at High Camp.
• Arc open at Gold Coast lodge.
• We'll also be donating $20 from the sale of each ski/ride lift ticket to the Palisades Tahoe Alpine Meadows foundation.

Opening Day Is Scholarship Day
For the third year in a row, for each ski lift ticket sold on opening day, Palisades Tahoe will donate $20 to the Palisades Tahoe Alpine Meadows Foundation (SAF). SAF provides scholarships to both athletes and coaches for the Palisades Tahoe and Alpine Meadows ski and snowboard teams. Passholders will be given an opportunity to donate to SAF on-site on opening day. Come on out, break in the 2014-15 season, and support a good cause.
