Kirkwood is y favorite resort in CA, it's a little off the beaten path and there isn't much nightlife but that's not what i'm looking for. It start by a nice ride from the bay area on scenic and uncroded highway 88, then the resort alwasy gets the very best snow of the tahoe area (it gets lots of it, and since it's colder here, the snow is drier/colder). This is quite a large resort and not too crowded compared to the main tahoe resorts. Only drwaback is that it's not a secret anymore so it's changing a bit. But the bottom line is you won't be disappinted here, espceially if you are an intermediate to expert skier.
