Alpine Meadows
Thinking of getting a season pass here. Is this place any good? Does
it get crowded with long lift lines? Thanks |

Thinking of getting a season pass here. Good. Is this place any good? It's the best skiing at Tahoe, if you can access the off piste. Does it get crowded with long lift lines? No. Controlled ticket sales. But even that doesn't matter - if you have a pass, you'll quickly learn how to avoid even the small groups that do sometimes gather. Thanks |

Don't sweat the small stuff, grab your pass and never look back. |

Why would you be thinking of getting a season pass at a place you have never
skiied? I would suggest a day pass first... at 32 bucks its hard to beat... And yes its a great area with lots of open rolling cruising... for my money more enjoyable than Squaw, but your mileage may vary Ajw "Jiyang Chen" wrote in message ...

If you think the attraction at Alpine Meadows is "open rolling cruising," you need to be a little more adventurous. |
