    How are the crowds

    California/Nevada Squaw or Alpine on a Sunday

    Our first day skiing on our trip at the end of March will be a Sunday and I was wondering which might be the least crowded? Also, is there a shuttle between the two? We are staying at The Resort at Squaw Creek.

    Share your lift line wait time experiences

    Over the years I've learned that the term "crowded" is pretty relative. So, I thought it'd be interesting to share your specific lift line experiences at various mountains in various scenarios. As a destination skier, I'll start with specifics from a few trips I can remember. Vail Tuesday...
