Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows launch the Springback Super 4-Pack – good for four days of skiing and riding for just $244 or $61 per day
[Olympic Valley, Calif. and Tahoe City, Calif.] March 5, 2012 – To celebrate the recent arrival of nearly five feet of new snow last week and with spring just around the corner, Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows present the
Springback Super 4-Pack, offering four unrestricted days of skiing and riding for the remainder of the 2011-12 winter season at either resort for just $244 ($61 per day) and $99 for kids 12 and under (less than $25 per day). The Springback Super 4-Pack is available for purchase online at
squaw.com and
skialpine.com, or by phone at 1-800-403-0206.
Though the
Springback Super 4-Pack is an unbeatable deal – the savings only get better from there. Once a skier and rider has used up the Springback 4-Pack’s four unrestricted days – the pass can be reloaded in one day increments for just $59 per day for adults and $21 per day for kids 12 and under. Skiers and riders who have previously purchased the Tahoe Super 4-Pack or the Tahoe Super 6-Pack will also be able to reload their passes at this incredible rate.
The Springback Super 4-Pack is available just in time for Squaw and Alpine’s legendary spring skiing. With some of the best corn snow in the nation, brilliant blue skies and an amazing lineup of spectacular spring events – Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows offer the ultimate spring skiing experience.
The spring season at Squaw Valley kicks off with the opening of the
High Camp Pool and Hot Tub (scheduled to open in mid March). Squaw’s truly unique pool is located high on the mountain at 8,200 feet, nestled between Squaw’s magnificent peaks with views of Lake Tahoe and the surrounding Sierra Nevada. Beside the pool and hot tub, Squaw’s Umbrella Bar serves up cocktails daily and the Poolside Café offers delicious dining overlooking the pool.
Squaw Valley’s spring scene offers a complete calendar of events ranging from après music in the Village at Squaw Valley to High Camp pool parties and on mountain competitions. Spring is also the time for some of Squaw’s wacky signature events such as Retro Ski Day and the Lake Cushing Crossing; the original pond skimming event where skiers and snowboarders ride down the slope and attempt cross a pond wearing creative costumes and performing daring tricks in an effort to capture the coveted title and prize package.
Just on the other side of the ridgeline, Alpine Meadows is also known for great spring skiing and nonstop fun. Follow the sun as the groomers warm up and end up at the Ice Bar at the bottom of Sherwood Run to relax and enjoy an ice cold beverage. Recognized as one of Tahoe’s most unique spots to gather with friends and catch a few rays of the Sierra’s famous sunshine, the Ice Bar is a springtime hotspot. Keep an eye out for Ice Bar parties scheduled throughout the season.
In addition to the Ice Bar, Alpine Meadows is also hosting the Spring Music Series featuring live music every weekend throughout the spring season. Well-known bands are scheduled to play at the Alpine Meadows sundeck, in the Last Chair Bar & Grill, the Ice Bar, or on the legendary Alpine Bandwagon (the one and only customized snow grooming machine which features a stage equipped with an outdoor concert sound system).
