Can't beat $35 for lift, snowboard rental and beginner instruction. Very friendly and helpful staff. Xcellant beginner snowboard instruction. Cheapest beginner package available in the Tahoe area.

Had a great time snowboarding on the Broadway Run with my 7 year old sister on Skis. Snowboarded on the Blue Beaver trail. Loved the powdery snow (machine - homegrown) and my mum skied. Sierra at Tahoe has lots of beginner and intermediate runs to choose from. Only drawback renting skis and snowboard are on 2 different floors, bring your own if you can.

The steeps and the backside were closed due to coverage issues, but the blues were entertaining enough. I'd like to go back to see all the mountain. GREAT staff, and a pleasant local feel.

Would like to have seen some groomed runs. It appeared that all were not. It was snowing lightly, but not enough to put down the snow on the runs that were there. My first time @ Sierra @ Tahoe and was a little disappointed.

Really friendly ticket office person.
And very quick walk to the lift from parking.

with out backside open, only west bowl high speed quad other than bunny infront of base lodge, it is not a good value unless you like skiing the same 5 runs over and over. Closer to SAC and it would have taken us at least another hour+ in weather to get to south shore or longer AND S_AT T KNOWS IT! I will drive more and sleep in my car like I did as student 30 years ago and hit it again before the sun hits CA side. I live in texas now. MISS the skiing the most for sure. I need 11.5-12 for snowboard. HELP!

Getting a helmet for a my first time snowboarding was a good idea however, I wish someone told me to get a butt protector!
Conditions were very hard and icy.

Save on money - - bring your own food and eat in the parking lot. Great time, perfect for new skiers and snowboarders.

print your confirmation for your lift ticket. Even though it states all you need is your ID and you do not need to print the paper confirmation in order to pick up your lift ticket, it is NOT true. The teller made us go to guest services and re-print the email before she would give us our lift tickets!

Sierra is an outstanding resort! I was a season pass holder there for 3 years and am never unsatisfied. They great snowfall amongst other resorts and they terrain parks are very versatile. Great resort, i highly recommend it cause its not too far and right off the 50!

Sierra at Tahoe is a "best kept secret." The great variety of terrain and trails makes up for its size ... otherwise it's Squaw Valley for me. We skied Kirkwood, then Heavenly then Sierra last week and Sierra had THE BEST snow conditions, hands down--this after 9 days without new snow in the Tahoe Sierras ... probably because of the tree coverage and location on Echo Summit.

Don't ski Sierra at Tahoe the day after it rains. Icy like never before. Kept the slopes cleared of skiers and boarders. Backside was the only area that had decent snow because of sun exposure, but too hard to continue to ski due to week day closure of return chair.
