Sugar Bowl delivers, with four peaks to ski and ride: Mt. Lincoln, Mt. Disney, Crows Peak, and Mt. Judah, offering terrain for every skier ability. Take in breath-taking views of the Sierras from these peaks. We groom over 500 acres, not to mention our new and improved park on Mt. Judah. Our snowmaking capacity has increased to 25% of our mountain, although we receive over 500" of snow a year so sometimes they don't make snow as much as you'd think.
The Village at Sugar Bowl has enjoyed a major expansion with completion of the first phase of their new Village at Mount Judah. The Village at Sugar Bowl offers a rare opportunity with a great location. Ski-in-ski-out condos are located at the base of Mt. Judah so first chair is just out the front door.

Improvements for this Season
New in 09/10, the Summit Chair will whisk skiers and riders to the Judah Bowl and points beyond, providing lift-served access to this previous hike-to terrain. The new lift will mean improved sidecountry access, and improved skier compaction in the Judah Bowl itself, equating to improved base conditions for more consistent skiing, more often.
Also new this season...with improved sidecountry access comes the need for educational backcountry programs. Alpine Skills International, The Backcountry and Sugar Bowl have teamed up to launch the Backountry Adventure Center, offering snow safety courses, a new beacon basin and of course professionally guided powder pursuits in and out of Sugar Bowl.
Finally, the Mountain Sports Learning Center has been converted into a kid-friendly learning center known as The Den, home to Sugar Bears, Powder Cubs and Black Bear Adventures.
Sugar Bowl celebrates 70 years in 09/10, having served up authentic alpine adventures since 1939.
