Slopes/runs Palisades Tahoe
The ski resort of Palisades Tahoe has runs of all difficulty levels and numerous difficult (ungroomed) forest runs. The slopes mainly lead down to the valley through forest glades. The only area of sparse tree cover is in the very highest part of the ski resort. You can therefore find ideal terrain here for powder skiing in the glades and bowls below the breath-taking granite walls. Beginners can find perfect slopes at High Camp while experts can look forward to lots of thrills on Granite Chief, Washeshu Peak and KT-22. From the slopes of the resort, you can often enjoy beautiful views of the deep-blue Lake Tahoe.
