Two Lake Tahoe area ski resorts first to announce extended seasons

LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - With epic amounts of snow this season, Palisades Tahoe and Sugar Bowl are the first two Lake Tahoe area resorts to announce later closing dates than normal.

In an announcement this week, Palisades Tahoe said due to over 400" of snow so far, they will be open for skiing and riding through Memorial Day, Monday, May 29 - at least, weather and conditions permitting. Visit https://www.palisadestahoe.com/ for more information.

Having received 390 inches of snow so far this season – 154 inches fell in January alone – Sugar Bowl Resort announced it will extend its operations through April 23. The popular resort on Donner Summit plans to be open daily from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. through the end of the season, giving skiers and riders more time to enjoy deep turns and a robust snowpack.

“We’ve seen significant storm after storm this season, and in celebration of the incredible snow conditions, we are extending the season another two weeks so skiers and riders can take full advantage of it,” said Jon Slaughter, Sugar Bowl Resort executive director of marketing and sales. “We’re also lining up some awesome spring deals, including the return of our Spring Pass, and will bring back a fan favorite – the Pond Skim on our closing weekend.”
