Terrain Drain Trip Review

Squaw Valley USA
Submitted By: Larry McKurtis

Overall impression of the riding: The resort is huge. 5 Mountains. Great terrain for beginners, but mostly its for intermediate to expert. I know every one wants to know about the park, Its basically three huge triple hit tables. In my opinion, the Launchs are too steep. The pipe has a nice 50 foot rollin, and you can't beat it on a good day. As for parks, Sugar Bowl's is the best in Tahoe. (Get to Granite Chief in the morning!You won't be sorry!)
Rank on a scale of 1 - 5 (Five being best, one being suckiest)
Overall Terrain: 5
