On our end of the Lake, Heavenly opened this past Saturday with a couple lifts and a couple runs.  Stanford Sierra Camp director, Dave Bunnett, got out for a few runs and said conditions were pretty darn good! On the north shore, Northstar opened last week and Friday, November 23 Squaw Valley Resort will open.  If you're planning a Tahoe ski trip, our sister property, the Stanford Alpine Chalet, is ready for winter guests!  You can contact Geoff Armstrong, marketing manager at 530-583-1550 or chalet@stanford.edu.

There are are a few available rooms at the Chalet for Thanksgiving weekend.  Chef Ron will be cooking up a fabulous Turkey day feast if you're that last-minute kind of person and still looking for a place to land tomorrow. Alpine Meadows, neighbor to the Chalet, has set an opening date of December 10, "weather and conditions permitting".  The exciting change this year, Alpine is now sister resort to Squaw Valley!  Through November 30, you can purchase a season pass for $439 that is good  at both mountains!  Another option is a six pack of tickets for $399. Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Stanford Sierra Camp, and we hope to see you on the slopes this winter!
