Families that play together, stay together!
NorthStar-at-Tahoe
Families comprised of beginning or intermediate skiers and snowboarders should look no further than Truckee’s Northstar-at-Tahoe (in California’s Lake Tahoe area), where nearly all of the resort’s 2,420 acres are designated as green or blue trails. Extras like the Parent Predicament perk (allowing two parents with young children to share one lift ticket), après-ski ice skating and s'mores roasts, and moonlight snowmobile tours get rave reviews from parents and youngsters alike. Also worthwhile, for more adventurous young skiers, is a visit to Adventure Parks, which offers an outlet to practice elementary jumps to both beginning skiers and snowboarders. www.northstarattahoe.com
