Heavenly's huge ski area takes in a vast array of terrain offering the ubiquitous something for everyone. The resort also participates in the Ski Lake Tahoe Interchangable Pass for international visitors, which gives them access to over 500 trails on 17500 acres, the most skiing on an area pass any where in North America. The area pass give access to - Kirkwood, Squaw Valley, Northstar, Sierra at Tahoe and Alpine Meadows. It's possible to reach Squaw for a day's skiing by using a traditional mississipi paddles steamer across the Lake complete with an on-board après ski party, another unique experience to notch up at Heavenly! Beginners have gentle terrain near the base lodges and friendly Californian tuition to look forward to. The resort has recently upgraded its beginner programs in a bid to get way above the national average in North America where apparently only 12% of first timers get hooked and stick with the sport. The new approach includes shorter lighter beginner-friendly skis from Rossignol and a specially tailored package dubbed 'Learn To Ski - Easy as 1-2-3' which includes rentals, tuition and beginners' lift tickets. Intermediates have the most to benefit from a visit to Heavenly, where they'll find they're able to tackle most of the terrain. Anyone interested in purchasing new gear, or just keeping up to date with what's on offer in the rapidly changing ski hardware market, can join in a free 90 minute Guided Demo. Groups of up to six can demo new gear in the company of a guide who will try to ascertain exactly what you want from your skiing, suggest gear to match your ideals, and then let you try it out. The scheme has been so successful that there are now Guided Demo centres on both sides of the mountain. Advanced to expert level skiers will find just over a third of Heavenly's terrain classified for them, with famous runs like Gunbarrel, on the Californian side, is ideal for those confident enough to do some posing under the chairlift. Otherwise the Milky Way Bowl and Killebrew Canyon over on the Nevada side should provide plenty of entertainment.
