My favorite mountain in the greater Tahoe area! Get your tickets online and skip the line (you do need the refillable card, have to get that in the mail, or at the pick up counter at the resort )

Jonathan Hsieh

99$ for a lift ticket 3-pack if you have a pass at another Tahoe resort . well worth it because his is the only place in Tahoe with decent snow this year!

Ariana Faustini

I think Kirkwood is my favorite (after Mammoth). Why? Because it's not as crowded as the other Tahoe resorts . Plus the backside has some great terrain and there are plenty of bowls for freshies .

Jamie T

Mountain mainly with single and double diamonds.. Definately need to bring a longer board and put ur settings back for the fresh pow! Nice cliff drops and awesome bowls

Graham Geiselman

Well worth the drive here. Never any lift lines , good snow, killer terrain . My favorite Tahoe resort .

Douglas Gray

Usually the best snow in Tahoe . In a drought year it is often the only place with any decent snow .

Carlos M. Rodríguez Vega

All levels of expertise are well distributed through all the resort and has an excellent view .

The Ski Channel

Kirkwood has the highest peak in all of Tahoe , so you are promised to find some pow on this extreme resort . The Wall is your go-to for double-black diamond thrills.

Colin Sparks

Only been in the summer, but there are bike and hiking trails , so still worth the time.

Natalie K

Great mountain , not too crowded .

Damian Bayona

Good runs, fewer crowds and less crowded highways. An under appreciated resort in Tahoe 🗻⛷ 🏂

Evan Goldin

On weekends, have lunch at red cliffs lodge . Much less crowded , with cheap beer and food in downstairs market

Kat 🐱

Love the #5 and #11 lift. Great blue runs for snowboarders .

If you have a pass at another Tahoe basin resort you can get a day pass for Kirkwood for $33.

Free wifi by the Red Cliffs Lodge (in case you're on Sprint and get no data service out here)

Summer Glitter

Check this mountain out, awesome terrain and really down to earth people :)

Sharon Raupach

Love the trails and the thrill of skiing Buckboard, with my grandchildren!

Christian Handley

Get a friend with a season pass. Lift tickets are $39 if they scan your friend's pass!

Zakk DeVine

Amazing mountain with terrain for everyone! Hard to get to on a pow day, but worth it!

michael nerenburg

Thank god vail bought them maybe now they won't be so screwed up with the hippies running that primitive mountain .

David Small

I'm a better skier than your boyfriend.

Andrew Furman

Smaller but awesome runs

Arnaud Mauvais

Make sure you check runs by chair number 4, especially after fresh snow!

Amanda Swarthout

Bring snacks/food...it's pricey even for a ski resort

Sam Ho

2 for 1 tickets from shell (not good in Saturdays) and $50 tickets from costco. Normal price is $79

Crystal Bay Club Casino

Worth the drive on a big powder day.

Matthew Reyes

If you're a noob, don't burn your energy on the bunny #9, go to #7 quickly

Lisa van der Meer

Great place to ski and snow board. Food is ridiculously over priced. $5 for hot cocoa . Take your own. $7.50 for a 2 ounce bottle of sun screen. Employees are wonderful.

Kristen R. B.

Don't feel like skiing ? Take your your dog x-country skiing or snow shoeing

Grace DeVita

I only fell 3 times

Arturo Crespo

good mountain for advanced and expert skiers

Matthew Reyes

Make sure check your rental gear, they gave me broke ass board binders.

Stephanie Barnes

FREEZING! But some amazing snow.

Luke Russell

Skiing is tops but bring your own party.

Heatheree

hit the slopes early for the freshies

David Wendland

$4 24oz Modelo's!

Linda Mattos

Time to ski the Wall!

Zachary Reiss-Davis

Cross country main area is next to the Kirkwood Inn , not in the main parking area. And the parking staff is not helpful on directing you there.

Chris Williams

Great atmosphere and cheap beer . This place isn't affiliated with Kirkwood so no price gouging..

Sergey Smirnov

The food is EXPENSIVE.
