I am going to tahoe for a week. What is the best place to ride at. I am interested in big mountian riding and beginner parks. Just started riding park last season. I am staying in Genoa so Heavenly will be the clostest resort so I will go there at least once. I plan on riding Sunday Wed, Thursday, maybe one more day depending on $$$. Any suggestions would be great. I am riding by myself on Sunday and some friends from back east on Wed thursday.
Be there this weekend

Yea brother peice of advice for the future, try to not come to Tahoe until like after Christmas and New Years (not only the busiest but crappiest conditions...USUALY thats not always true) If conditions where prime and transportation wasent an issue id say cruise over to North Star, that's my favorite mountain (doesn't help i live and work there) out there besides Alpine when its just crapping out snow and 267 + 80 are closed (09/10 season...me and my buddy where one of the few people on the hill....E.P.I.C.)

Conditions are horrible right now, everywhere is man made groomers and park riding, although some weather blogs are starting to notice a shift in the pattern, so hopefully in the next few weeks things change, but if you not coming for another 6 weeks you have a better chance of having better conditions, shoot it's tahoe it could dump 10 feet in one week once the storms start coming in.

I forgot to report back on the trip to Heavenly Valley. I boarded 2 days and it was all man made snow but coverage was good on the runs that were open. The park was good. I rode the small features and saw some really good riders throwing down huge spins, they were very impressive. My friend from the east coast said it was way better than where he rides in Virginia. Lot longer runs. The snow police was a bit weird telling you to slow down. Dont have that at Mt Hood. Every thing was bare off the main runs. Overall a good time riding. Mont Blu Casino was fun also thanks for the tip.
