Squaw Valley, California

Nestled at the end of a stunning alpine valley in California's Sierra Nevada mountains, Squaw Valley offers six peaks and 4,000 acres of incredible terrain. The resort’s pedigree as a great winter destination was born in 1960 when it hosted the Winter Olympics. Since then, $30 million has been spent on upgrades to lifts and mountain operations. Should you need a break from the skiing and snowboarding, the casinos at Lake Tahoe are just a short drive away.
