With a 45-minute drive from Vegas, you can go ski on perfectly good...icy snow. Hrmph.

There are only 3 ski lifts at this so-called ski & snowboard resort. The black diamond course seemed too intimidating for my pathetic self and the conditions on the intermediate course were horrible and icy, so I was told. I didn't feel like breaking my bones or getting ass bruises, so I went and dominated the third course..."Rabbit Peak." How cute. It takes about 20 seconds to go down this course, which is way too short, in my opinion. But it was the bunny slope, so I couldn't have expected much.

The price of the lift ticket and equipment rentals did not justify the skiing here. It was $80 NOT well spent.

(insert sad face here)

Not really the greatest place to ski.  There was about an inch of snow when I went, but plenty of ice if you like something hard to fall on.  Nothing ha really changed since the last time I went which was a couple years ago except for the price of holiday rates which were raised to $50 for an all day lift ticket and $35 for rentals, the same price you can get almost anywhere else with better slopes.  The rental lines took about an hour to wait for.  The food's also expensive, but that's to be expected anywhere.  It's not that I didn't have a good time, but it's more about the condition of the place.  On the bright side, the equipment they rented out did get a bit better so that's a plus.  It's also the only choice if you want to go somewhere that's just an hour away.
