Great resort. Family friendly. This is our go to resort in the south lake region. The ski school is really good. Food options are legit and their pricing is very competitive.

This is the resort I learned how to snowboard at from 2014-2017 (sporadically) and once I committed to snowboarding in 2017 I trained and got much better but still love coming here! It’s a place that feels like home — though they got bought by Vail a year or two ago, this resort has not changed its vibe. It still feels like an awesome local mountain.
I haven’t gotten bored of the runs and due to a huge forest fire a few years ago, some of the terrain has also changed which has kept things interesting. The quality of the groomed runs is always great. If you know your way around the mountain, you can create some nice long routes down and hit trees, side hits, and park as you please. There’s a lot of variety here for not being a huge mountain. West Bowl is my favorite, full of fun and challenging blue runs. Especially on weekends, the lift line there is the shortest so you can maximize runs. At the base of West Bowl is also the cabana where you can grab a beer!!
The main base area of the mountain has many bars and lots of space to chill when you’re done for the day or taking a break. Sierra also has wonderful events, with nothing feeling too big and out of reach so you will always feel included in all the fun. Cheers!

It was alright. Felt really crowded the day we went to be honest. The lifts were good though and the snow was fresh. Had a bunch of nice beginner runs and were very beginner-friendly
