Mt. Rose Overview

Region Wide Comparison
 

Area Profile

Mount Rose is the closest serious skiing and riding to Reno and the Reno-Tahoe Airport. It may be close, but it's boasts Lake Tahoe's highest base area at 8,260 feet opening up a 1,800 foot vertical and 1,200 acres of skiing. There's often good powder skiing and the Chutes adds a new dimension for serious skiers and riders. It's a good spot to learn to ski or ride, too, as there are three dedicated beginner lifts. Mt. Rose is a perfect choice for the first and last day of Lake Tahoe vacations or for those staying in Reno and enjoying the nightlife of "The Biggest Little City In The World."
