A 4TH OF JULY CELEBRATION FOR THE RECORD BOOKS
This Independence Day, Reno Tahoe is giving you the chance to love the good ol’ U. S. of A. in a whole new way. Alpine Meadows, Squaw Valley USA and Sugar Bowl Resort are re-opening their slopes for the 4th of July weekend and hosting Independence Day parties you’ll never forget. C’mon, how often do you have the chance to ski/board in July? With near-record breaking snowfall this past winter, we can’t pass up the opportunity to utilize what Mother Nature has given us.
Just because you’re snow skiing doesn’t mean you won’t be able to show off your summertime bikini bod, it will be 70 degrees on the slopes! Between runs take a plunge in Squaw Valley’s High Camp Swimming Pool and Hot Tub or enjoy a cold beer and live music on the slope-side decks of Alpine Meadows.
Locals know what happens, eh around noon, on most ski hills in summer time – slush. But don’t worry; the resorts will be well prepared back at the lodge with t-shirts, food, games and tunes to keep the party going all day long.
No matter what hill you choose, you’ll be riding out your 4th of July weekend with an experience only a handful of people can say they’ve done.
Check the list below for brief event details each mountain has to offer.
Ski, snowboard and party from 9am to 4pm on Saturday, Sunday and Monday with après-ski* festivities happening from noon to 4pm daily. *Drinking, mostly.
