California Ski and Snowboard
Ski or Snowboard the Gunbarrel, Lake Tahoe
Heavenly Valley
Epic Mountain
With 4,800 acres, we are one of North America’s largest mountains. At over 10,000 feet, we are Tahoe’s highest. Our 3,500 foot vertical is unmatched on the West Coast. And our average annual snowfall is a formidable 360 inches. And just in case that’s not enough for you, we have one of the largest snowmaking systems on the continent at the ready, covering 70% of the mountain.Let’s talk terrain. Put simply, we’ve got it all, from breezy blue squares to hair-raising black diamonds. There’s no better tree skiing on earth. And experts will have a field day at Mott and Killebrew canyons. This is what other mountains want to be when they grow up. This is Heavenly.
Epic Location
A truly epic ski vacation isn’t just about skiing. Enter Lake Tahoe. Where wildlife meets the wild life. Hot springs. Spas. Sleigh rides. Lake cruises. Restaurants. Shopping. We’ve got it all.
