Kirkwood RESORT PACKAGES

Destination: California
Availability: November – April

DIFFICULTY

= EASY

DURATION/DATES

4-7 Nights (longer stays available)

Kirkwood Resort is located in the Sierra Mountains of South Lake Tahoe and approximately 90-minutes from the Reno-Tahoe International Airport .  The resort has a very unique location near Carson Pass, where storms approach from the north and south.  After picking-up moisture from the Pacific Ocean, precipitation funnels through a canyon up the Sierra foothills, and produces significant snowfall at the resort.  Kirkwood is known to measure their snow totals in feet, not inches!

Kirkwood has great terrain for all ability levels, from the first time novice skier to the hardcore expert powder-hound.  The resort has been a locals favorite mountain for many years and since its location is a bit more remote, it does not see the weekend crowds that some of the other resorts in the area do.

Flight into Reno-Tahoe International Airport, then a 90 minute transfer to the resort (80 miles/129 kms).

The Sisters

This peak has extreme skiing terrain that Kirkwood is well-known for and is not to be taken lightly.  The Sisters area is chalk-full of chutes, cliff drops, and purely radical terrain!

This is by far one of the biggest objectives in Kirkwood, as well as the most rewarding. Here, you can ski unforgettable powder turns inbounds or head out the U.S. Forest Service gate to explore the endless backcountry.
