Tahoe Downhill Ski Guide 2022-23 season

The 2022-23 ski season kicked off with a fantastic start as Mother Nature brought a series of storms into the Tahoe Sierra in early November that brought up to 3 feet of snow to some ski areas. So much so in fact, that nine local downhill and Nordic centers (and a few tubing hills) opened for the Veteran’s Day holiday weekend.

Every year for the last 22 years, we’ve kicked off the start of the ski season with our annual Tahoe Downhill Ski Guide. I’ve penned the ski guide personally for most of those 22 years and enjoy sharing what’s new and exciting at local ski areas, along with deals and discounts, and highlighting favorite amenities (many of which were not offered during the pandemic). I’m glad to see nearly every fan favorite return to our local ski areas.

My tip: Purchase a pass, it remains the best deal. If you do intend to purchase lift tickets, look for deals, visit midweek during non-holiday times and purchase as far in advance as possible.
