    ****** (12/20/2007 07:08)- fabulous skiing!
    This is a great place to ski! When we went, it was far less crowded than Heavenly Valley. Plus the snow was great! It's a little less convenient than Heavenly, so fewer people tend to go there.
    david (12/3/2007 18:55)- Usually less crowded than other slopes
    It's a little bit of a drive, but that seems to be enough of a barrier to keep a lot of people away so that it is usually less crowded than other resorts around Lake Tahoe.
