We went last year - I wasn't a huge fan, but the poor snow conditions
didn't help the verdict. It felt like we were constantly traversing
from the California to Nevada sides and vice versa - and there are no
real beginner trails to do that (ask Kumar about his experience with
that :). It does have the appeal of casinos close by, if you like
gambling. No real ski-in/ski-out accommodations either.
