alright so my family is going to lake tahoe for our spring break to ski (i live in Wisconsin so going out west is always really sick)

i think we're skiing like 5 days or something, 1 day at heavenly and 2 or 3 at mammoth

i know theres a ton of other areas out there, so which ones are the most fun???

but for good all around skiing i definitely recommend squaw and alpine, because they have steeps, all mountain, and really amazing parks.

Just making sure, but you know that Mammoth is a few hours South of Tahoe, right?  Whatever, Mammoth is fucking sick.  Squaw for sure.  Especially at that time of year.

kirkiwood. Try mount rose if its not windy. I don't like the place like squaw or heavenly because of the crowds.

Northstar always puts up a sick park, but don't look for much else, it never gets steeper than a mild black.  Squaw of course, it's the biggest and usually the best.  Northstar's sister, Sierra-at-Tahoe on south shore has a few parks all over the mountain, and you can just park and ride since it isn't a full resort.  And hey, why not check Boreal back on the north side, it's almost all park this year.

on a powder day the backside of northstar is pretty fun. Northstar is kind of a rip off though. We went there when our passes were blacked out thinking we would get a big discount, but we ended up only getting 10 bucks off and having to pay like 72 or something. If your 18 Alpine is $50, and it has better jumps and better terrain.

What no ones said Heavenly? Go there its my personal favorite. North star always has a great park and you won't be disappointed with squaw or kirkwood either.
