Ski Heavenly Valley, South Tahoe Area, – Few ski resorts can match the magnificent beauty of Heavenly Valley, thus its name.  There are scenic views of the emerald colored Lake Tahoe on one side and the desert of Reno on the other side not to mention the scenic Sierra Mountains.  Heavenly is the area’s largest ski area.  The mountain averages 360 inches of annual snowfall covering 4800 acres of skiable acres with a 3500 foot vertical drop.  You can ski across from California to Nevada.  It is a skier and snowboarder heaven.  There are 20% beginner, 45% intermediate runs, 30% black, and 5% expert.  There are 28 lifts.

You will see breathtaking views of Lake Tahoe and the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range.  You can hop off half way at observation deck for spectacular sights and photos.  Heavenly also has many restaurants, a mall for shopping with an ice rink, and spa.  All these activities are near the Gondola in the Village.  Your hotel, Forest Suites Resort, where breakfast is included, is located under the lift in the village... Additionally, there are also four different ski areas in the region where you can use the same lift pass.  They would require getting a shuttle or renting a car to reach.  Shuttles can be arranged at the Marriott and price depends on numbers in van.  Get your party together and go to one of these places.
