Looking for some final turns before the curtain comes down on the 2023-24 ski season in Lake Tahoe? It can still be done at Palisades Tahoe.
Palisades Tahoe is approaching the final days of the longest ski season in Lake Tahoe, closing out on Memorial Day, May 27. The slopes will be open from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. for skiing and riding, weather and conditions permitting. Once the slopes close, the resort will pivot to summer operations.
Palisades Tahoe is offering the Spring Ticket Trio that comes with three lift tickets to use yourself or share with your friends. Bring your crew along for just $99/each.
There’s been good spring skiing at Palisades Tahoe, the only Tahoe ski resort that was open in May. The best was an epic Pow Day on May 5 when excited skiers and snowboarders quickly lined up at Palisades Tahoe, where a whopping 2-plus feet (26 inches) fell on the Tahoe ski resort following a sizable storm that hit the region the previous day.
The fresh powder didn’t go unnoticed by local skiers and riders. Numerous skiers and riders reportedly packed Palisades Tahoe to take advantage of the fresh powder, forming a line to the lifts that some observers said appeared to stretch for nearly a mile.
The added snow pushed the Palisades Tahoe total to 423 inches for the season.
“Over 2 feet of snow dump down on Palisades Tahoe in May is just a testament to the Sierra storms we experience here,” Palisades Tahoe spokesperson Madison Condon said.
MADE IN TAHOE FESTIVAL: Memorial Day weekend is the unofficial start to summer. At Palisades Tahoe, that means the return of the annual festival (May 25-26) where local artisans and business owners will line the streets of the Village to showcase their talents and products while local entertainers perform from midday to dusk.
This free, family-friendly event celebrates all things inspired by or created in the Lake Tahoe Basin and Truckee. The festival starts at 11 a.m. on both days and goes until 5 pm.
Included are headliners Down the Rabbit Hole on Saturday and Coburn Station on Sunday, along with performances by Truckee Dance Factory and Moonlight Movement on both days. All proceeds from the festival bars benefit the Tahoe Food Hub, which has raised over $60,000.
This event is partnered with the Truckee School of Music and Tahoe Food Hub and sponsored by the North Tahoe Community Alliance, whose mission is to enhance the region’s vibrancy and advocate for sustainable year-round visitation and responsible travel practices while supporting local businesses.
Also on Saturday, experience the mountains through the eyes of the Washoe people. Join Rhiana Jones, Environmental Program Director for the Washoe Tribe, on the KT Base Bar Deck at 10 a.m. (May 25) where she will share stories of Washoe history and culture from the Valley and surrounding mountains.
