Palisades Tahoe has announced a grand opening for the new Base to Base Gondola on Dec. 17, connecting the Alpine Lodge and The Village at Palisades Tahoe.
The Base to Base gondola has four terminals: one in each base area, one at the top of KT-22 and one on private land (no disembarking will be allowed at this terminal). The scenic ride from one base area to the other will take around 16 minutes and cover 2.4 miles. Each of the 96 cabins can fit up to 8 passengers. As well, the Gondola can be operated as one continuous lift or as two separate lifts from each base area to the top of KT-22.
The resort will also open the new Red Dog chairlift and unveil the renovation of the Alpine Base area this season. Palisades Tahoe is scheduled to open for the season on Nov. 22. Find details on planned improvements at TheTahoeWeekly.com. | palisadestahoe.com
