Man, this place is tiny. I like it that way, it's very cozy and inspiring. says Richard.

Boreal is a great little ski area, plenty of fun runs and good snow. It's a lot smaller than most ski areas around here which is of course both good and bad. But for a resort of this size it's perfect. says Ken Smith.

I LOVE SNOW BOARDING AT YOUR RESORT IT IS SO

    BEAUTIFUL says Stephanie.

This ski mountain has a good set of trails and an okay total of great ski lifts. This ski hill has a much lower than average share of difficult ski trails and a much higher than average share of beginner and intermediate trails.
With a 500 foot drop from top to bottom it's not the highest hill there is, but all the other pleasant features of Boreal make up for it. The annual snowfall is stronger than average at Boreal. This is a smaller than average ski mountain with a pretty small-size drop from top to bottom if compared to other west coast ski mountains. There's a ski run map of Boreal on this internet page for your reference. The 10 ski lifts here will get you up the hill well. The mountains of the Northern Sierra Nevada is a surroundings

worth seeing. The incredible yearly snowfall of 33 feet is an exceptionally splendid coverage. This ski hill has 41 runs that you may ski on; it's a magnificent diversity. There's 380 acres of skiing land, and it's all in good condition. When this segment of California is blanketed in great snow; it is so pretty for snowboarding or skiing. The snowboarding and the skiing in California is lots of fun all ski season long. Getting a little bit of brilliant exercise and just being on the runs for a while outclasses anything. Whether you're skiing or snowboarding, around here, you'll encounter loads of brilliant places. There aren’t any accommodations close by, but if you're ready to drive a small distance then no problem, but do book a room prior to departure in view of the fact that it is a very popular destination. Boreal is a good ski hill with a lot of different slopes; it won’t leave anyone bored. This is a good ski hill for everyone with a lot of intermediate or beginner slopes. The Northern Sierra Nevada in winter is a pure snowboarding or skiing paradise. This is a popular ski hill for skiers from Truckee-Grass Valley.
