Sugar Bowl   This is a perfect mountain. I love it here. It is a really good place to ski. Says Kathey. No other ski hill for 28 miles has a more sky-scraping height difference. This ski hill gets blanketed by more than average snow each season. The 1,500 feet of height difference is quite acceptable; Sugar Bowl makes great use of it. All of the 13 good ski lifts are competently looked after and controlled by friendly folks. This ski mountain has an average percentage     of difficult ski runs and an average share of green and blue runs. The snow here becomes exceptionally deep, 42 feet per year, and that is one of the reasons this is such a great ski hill. The best piece of information on this resort is of course the ski map of Sugar Bowl on this net page. Sugar Bowl has scores of different runs and an ok pick of ski lifts. Having a total of 85 runs to ski on; it's a splendid collection. Sugar Bowl is a standard size ski area in possession of a vertical drop that's in the region of average when compared to other west coast ski hills. The wonderful beauty of the California mountaintops and the rush of gliding down a slope are in themselves cause enough   to come here to ski. Nothing outdoes the California summits in wintertime; they are a great place for snowboarding and skiing. Whether you're skiing or snowboarding, there are a lot of splendid spots for that close at hand. This ski mountain has a perfect choice of runs to suit all abilities; it's out of the question to get bored here. With the skiing territory being 1,500 acres running out of skiable area won’t happen. The Northern Sierra Nevada blanketed in white snow is a sheer snowboarding and skiing paradise. The skiing and the snowboarding in this region is a lot of fun every day of the ski season. A little bit of exercise and getting out of the house for a while are splendid incentives to come. The Northern Sierra Nevada and its summits make for a great view. You may have to settle for a hotel a bit far away from the bottom of the hill if you want to spend a night, but if you don’t have reservations, you could end up slumbering in your vehicle.          Hotels Near Sugar Bowl ski area, Northern Sierra Nevada, California Donner Lake Village, Truckee 3.4 miles away Worldmark Olympic Village Inn, Olympic Valley 8.6 miles away PlumpJack Squaw Valley Inn, Olympic Valley 8.8 miles away Village At Squaw Valley, Olympic Valley 9 miles away Resort At Squaw Creek, Olympic Valley 9.8 miles away River Ranch Lodge And Restaurant, Tahoe City 11.5 miles away Best Western Plus Truckee-Tahoe Hotel, Truckee 11.8 miles away Hampton Inn - Suites Tahoe-Truckee, Truckee 12.5 miles away Granlibakken Tahoe, Tahoe City 14.7 miles away One Village Place By Welk Resorts, Truckee 14.8 miles away Americas Best Value Inn, Tahoe City 15 miles away The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe, Truckee 15.6 miles away Northstar Resort, Truckee 15.8 miles away * Distances listed are direct linear distances, actual travel distance may be different.   Trailmap Bigger Trailmap Pictures of Sugar Bowl ski area Bigger Picture Bigger Picture Stats Detailed Stats Contact Info Phone, Email, Address, GPS coordinates Weather Local weather forecast These outdoors activities are available near Sugar Bowl ski area.   Ski Areas Near Sugar Bowl ski area: Donner Ski Ranch, California , 1 miles away    750 foot drop, 7 lifts, 52 runs    25% Expert & Adv.    50% Intermediate    25% Beginner Boreal, California , 2 miles away    500 foot drop, 10 lifts, 41 runs    15% Expert & Adv.    55% Intermediate    30% Beginner Soda Springs, California , 3 miles away    625 foot drop, 5 lifts, 16 runs    20% Expert & Adv.    50% Intermediate    30% Beginner Tahoe Donner, California , 6 miles away    600 foot drop, 4 lifts, 14 runs    0% Expert & Adv.    40% Intermediate    60% Beginner Squaw Valley, California , 9 miles away    2850 foot drop, 33 lifts, 177 runs    30% Expert & Adv.    45% Intermediate    25% Beginner Alpine Meadows, California , 10 miles away    1802 foot drop, 14 lifts, 100 runs    35% Expert & Adv.    40% Intermediate    25% Beginner Northstar at Tahoe, California , 14 miles away    2280 foot drop, 17 lifts, 70 runs    25% Expert & Adv.    50% Intermediate    25% Beginner Granlibakken, California , 15 miles away    300 foot drop, 2 lifts, 1 runs    0% Expert & Adv.    75% Intermediate    25% Beginner Homewood, California , 17 miles away    1650 foot drop, 8 lifts, 56 runs    35% Expert & Adv.    50% Intermediate    15% Beginner Diamond Peak, Nevada , 28 miles away    1840 foot drop, 6 lifts, 30 runs    36% Expert & Adv.    46% Intermediate    18% Beginner   Whitewater Near Sugar Bowl ski area: Yuba River - South Fork, Nevada / Placer County , 7 miles away, Class IV-V - 5.2 miles long (Kingvale to Cisco Grove) Fordyce Creek, Nevada County , 12 miles away, Class IV-V - 12 miles long (Fordyce Lake to Lake Spaulding) Yuba River - South Fork, Nevada / Placer County , 14 miles away, Class IV-V(V+) - 7.5 miles long (Cisco Grove to Spaulding Reservoir)   Trails Near Sugar Bowl ski area: Painted Rock Trail, Placer , 4 miles away,  7.4 hiking miles, 1553 feet elevation difference Warren Lake Trail, Nevada , 5 miles away, 6.6 hiking miles, 2381 feet elevation difference Lola Montez Trail, Nevada , 5 miles away, 1.5 hiking miles, 458 feet elevation difference   Golf Courses Near Sugar Bowl ski area: Tahoe Donner Golf Course, Truckee , 6 miles away Coyote Moon Golf Course, Truckee , 8 miles away Old Greenwood Golf Course, Truckee , 8 miles away
