You can purchase a discounted lift ticket to ski at Northstar-at-Tahoe™ Resort and help raise money for the Sierra Avalanche Center. They are a 501c3 not-for-profit organization working in partnership with the Tahoe National Forest to provide avalanche advisories.
The mission of the Sierra Avalanche Center includes disseminating current snow pack stability information to the general public; providing educational information, knowledge, and understanding of avalanches to recreational users and groups; and facilitating communication in the region to reduce the impact of avalanches on recreation, industry, and transportation through a partnership with the United States Forest Service.
