Spring on the Slopes

Spring on the Slopes

Love spring skiing? The resorts will be kicking up the fun with some fun and unique springtime events.  Mix in a summer sport with the snow and skis and be prepared for some unforgettable moments. 
  

Ski or snowboard down a slope and across the pond and hope to make it all the way to the other side before sinking into the water.  The more outrageous the costume you wear while doing it, the better!  If falling into the ice water isn't appealing, spectating is equally as fun. Bring your cowbells, yells, shouts and good spirits.  Check it out at Squaw Valley and Northstar.

Nine holes of golf on a course that is only open once a year?  That’s right, Alpine Meadows will hold the 34th Annual Snow Golf Tournament.  The nine hole golf course starts at the top of Summit Express Chair and meanders its way down the mountain with the last hole bringing competitors back to the bottom of Alpine Bowl Chair.  Go ahead, try something new!  
  

Northstar has the first two weeks in April packed with summer on the snow games.  Get your team of 4 together for a snow volleyball tournament or enjoy free play after the tournament on Saturday, April 8th.  The next weekend spend your ski breaks playing snow horse shoes or bocce ball by the Summit Deck and Grill.  All week long face painting and balloons will make the springtime at Northstar fun for everyone.

Springtime at the Tahoe Resort

Springtime at the Tahoe Resort

Springtime at the ski hill means sweet slushy snow and skiing in a t-shirt with your shades on.  The resorts have some fun spring games planned that mix in the hot weather with the snow that is still on the mountain.

  

Spring it On! continues at Northstar with pond skimming last week and arctic volleyball this week.  On Saturday, April 16th, get your team of 4 together for an afternoon of fun, laughs and competition.  The courts will be set up at mid-mountain and also available for non-tournament play until 1pm when the competition begins.  

Alpine Meadows has its own spin on summer meets winter sports with snow golf Saturday, April 16th.  This year will be the 33rd annual for the 9 hole, on mountain golf round.  Start your tee time at 9am at the top of Summit Express and work your way down the nine-hole course.  You are sure to be in for some good laughs at this event.  Celebrate your score card at the after party on the main lodge sun deck.  Who knows, you could be the winner of roundtrip airfare on Alaska Airlines! 

Squaw Valley is host to the Tahoe Truckee Earth Day celebration.  From 11am to 5pm on Saturday, April 16th, the Village at Squaw Valley will be packed with booths, music, food and environmental education. One of the most unique aspects of the event is the "Trashion Show" where participants create clothing out of what would have been trash.  Painted sample skirts, tire shirts or plastic bags are turned into clothing for this hometown fashion show. Come have fun and learn about some earth-friendly practices you might not have known about before.
