Super Bowls Await You!

Big Fun Before the Big Game... Does your Superbowl weekend include some time on the slopes? If so, Kirkwood is the best game in town for sure. Guaranteed to be uncrowded on the slopes for your personal skiing and riding pleasure; there will be plenty of fellow football fans to revel with at "Bub’s," where we will be showing the game on multiple big screen TVs. So, have your fill of our "super bowls" and the absolute best snow in Tahoe, then move on over to Bub’s for the Big Game and an equally colossal pile of nachos or a world famous Bub’s burger… all best washed down by an icy cold libation.

Snow and Stuff... Snowfall to date tops 30 feet; base depths are between 11 and 19 feet. Plenty of snow for everyone; 2300 acres of the most diverse terrain you’ll find a lift to in the High Sierra. For those who like it fast and steep, Kirkwood’s High Angle Grooming program will have you looking down some of the steepest groomed terrain in Lake Tahoe, with several black and double black diamond runs covered in wall to wall corduroy. Kirkwood’s legendary off-piste terrain such as Wagon Wheel Bowl, the Palisades and Thunder Saddle are all deep and soft and beckoning to the adventurous set to explore! For all levels, Kirkwood’s uncrowded slopes lend a sense of privacy and seclusion that is unmatched in Tahoe.

All terrain parks are open with features for all levels of the freestyle set... gentle rollers and banked turns in Adventureland (Chair 9), low to the snow rails and fun boxes in the DC Playground (Chair 7), and the monster Mountain Dew SuperPipe, along with a full-blown rail yard and a series of high-flying hits in the DC Stomping Grounds (Chair 5).


Weekend Events
