Northstar is my go to resort as Ive had the most experience there. Its great when youre starting out and has progressively challenging terrain but is pretty busy. It does have a very European ski village vibe but youre gonna pay a pretty penny due to it being in California

Mountain terrain serves a wide variety for all skill levels. Good prices are a bit absurd for what you get, but Vail is expensive.

Northstar is a strange mix of good terrain and well located lifts but several non-detachable chairs that whip around at the top and what should be a good village that is deserted with most storefronts empty
During the weeknitbsibquiet and slopes are very incrowded bit at weekend if there is powder it is packed.
If you have a car the town of Truckee is 20 minutes away and wonderful western town with true atmosphere
On mountain food is not great and very expensive
Enjoyed our time and if I could drive there would be great but wouldnt go there is flying in vs Palisades or Heavenly
