Mt. Rose is Lake Tahoe's closest skiing and riding to Reno and the Reno-Tahoe Airport. It's 25 minutes from Reno and 10 minutes from Lake Tahoe's north shore.
Good powder skiing and The Chutes (for serious skiers and riders) is thanks to Lake Tahoe's highest base area at 8,260 feet. This leads to 1,200 acres of skiing on 1,800 vertical feet.
Mt. Rose is an excellent choice for the first or last days of a Lake Tahoe vacation, or for those staying in Reno and enjoying nightlife in “The Biggest Little City in the World.â€
