Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows Combine Forces!

It’s official! Today it was announced that Squaw Valley USA and Alpine Meadows will be “combining operations” for the 2011/2012 ski season! Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows are two of the favorite ski resorts in the Lake Tahoe area. Now they are available to both be skied with one pass!

Details on the Merger

Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows will be owned and operated by a new company called Squaw Valley Ski Holdings LLC. There are no immediate plans to connect the two mountains but there will be a daily ski shuttle that will take skiers from one mountain to the next so they may conveniently ski at both.

One of the reasons for the merger is to increase the changes of Tahoe’s pursuit of the Winter Olympics in 2022. Squaw Valley CEO Andy Wirth says it’s too soon to tell if the merger will help Tahoe’s effort as of now.

This is big news for Alpine Meadows and Squaw Valley because now as a combined resort they have over 6,000 acres of accessible terrain. Squaw has about 4,000 skiable acres, Alpine 2,000. In comparison, Vail has about 5,000; Mammoth 3,500; and Whistler-Blackcomb 8,100.

Tahoe Super Pass

The New Tahoe Super Pass gives skiers access to Squaw Valley AND Alpine Meadows. Skiers will have access to over 6,000 acres spread across eight Sierra Nevada mountain peaks. The pass starts at just $439. Skiers who have already purchased their season pass will have access to both mountains with their pass from either mountain.

The Martis Camp Lodge opened one month ago on July 4, 2011. The opening was celebrated by Martis Camp members and guests.

Attendees were welcomed on the red carpet by doormen dressed in top hats and tails, and presented with a glass of Champagne as they passed through the front entry. Guests explored the unique dining rooms, outdoor terraces, lounges, spa and fitness area of the Camp Lodge while enjoying hors d’oeuvres and desserts at stations throughout the interior. At sunset, guests gathered on the terraces as a drum beat far away. Nine bagpipers, in full regalia, strode down the 18th fairway and onto the green as music rang through the mountains ~ ending the night and beginning the legacy.
