This guide has been developed to assist our Race Team athletes and their families in learning about recreational alpine ski racing programs at Bear Valley and the Far West Division of US SKI & SNOWBOARD. The goal of this guide is to make sure all our team participants understand how the programs work and are prepared to make the experience fun and rewarding. Like all youth sports, ski racers tend to start young. As they progress, the competition, training and equipment will tend to add intensity to the sport. We must remind ourselves that our young athletes race to have fun and develop their skiing skill for the life long experience and probably will not be the next Bode Miller or Julia Mancuso. That said, there may be a few of our young racers that have the ability and drive to make it to the highest level and they should be afforded every opportunity to realize the goal. Bear Valley Mountain Resort and Bear Valley SnowSports Foundation strive to support the needs of all our athletes in this regard. This Orientation Guide pulls information from a variety of sources to bring together information regarding various perspectives of ski racing.

    For Immediate Release Tahoe Donner Hires Steve Turner as Director of Food and Beverage Truckee, Calif. (January 11, 2021) – Tahoe Donner is pleased to announce the hiring of Steve Turner as its new Food and Beverage Director. Turner brings nearly 30 years of executive culinary experience and will oversee Tahoe Donner’s restaurant offerings with a focus on providing exceptional customer service and premier quality to members and guests. After graduating from San Diego State University, Turner entered the restaurant business with his father as co-owners and operators of three restaurants in Southern California—The Saddle Back Bar and Grill, The Lite House Café, and the Skinny Haven Restaurant. In 1993, Turner began a long career as Director of Food and Beverage at several ski resorts including Sierra-at-Tahoe, Mammoth Mountain, and most recently Vail Resorts at Heavenly Mountain Resort from 2002-2018.

He had the incredible opportunity to successfully open Lake Tahoe’s first celebrity restaurant, Gordon Ramsay’s Hell’s Kitchen in South Lake Tahoe. “When the Director of Food and Beverage position became available at Tahoe Donner, I thought, this is too good to be true,” says Turner. “To work in such a beautiful mountain community that features all my favorite passions; restaurants, skiing, golf, mountain biking, hiking, tennis and more, is a dream. I look forward to being an integrated part of this great organization and community.” Turner and his wife Lorraine are long-time Tahoe locals.

(Oct. 3, 2019) – On the heels of a strong winter season that extended the season of many resorts in California and Nevada—one into late July, Ski California and its 32 member resorts are gearing up for the 2019-20 winter season with significant investments designed to enhance the experience for skiers and riders this season and beyond. This includes a new chairlift, lodge renovations, all new food and beverage offerings, signature on-mountain experiences and events, ways for passionate skiers and riders to save on lift access and much more. “Ski California resorts have continued to invest year over year in facility and on-mountain improvements that enhance the skier experience,” said Michael Reitzell, Ski California president. “This season is no exception, and with the excitement that is already building thanks to early season snowfall, snowmaking firing up at some of our resorts with recent cold temperatures, and plans by at least one of our resorts to open later this month if conditions allow, winter will soon be underway in California and Nevada.” For those who want unrestricted, fully transferable access to all 32 resorts in California and Nevada, the 2019-20 Ski California Gold Pass is on sale now.

  • Winter Sports Program Review
    Winter Sports Program Review USDA Forest Service Pacific Southwest Region & California Ski Industry Association September 19, 2007 USDA Forest Service Pacific Southwest Region and California Ski Industry Association 2007 Winter Sports Program Review Executive Summary With resorts having averaged 7.3 million visits per winter over the last decade, ski areas offer the single most popular primary activity for which people visit the National Forests in California. For many, winter sports provide their initial introduction to the National Forests and an opportunity to build appreciation for California’s unique environment. As partners, the Forest Service and ski industry share responsibility for the stewardship of our forest resources and we look forward to continuing to build a relationship based on cooperation, collaboration and mutual benefit in achieving our goals. In an effort to cultivate this partnership, Regional Forester Bernie Weingardt requested that Region 5 (R5) and the California Ski Industry Association (CSIA) conduct a joint programmatic review of the region’s winter sports program. The purpose of the review was to spotlight innovations, create plans for action, provide quality visitor experiences and settings, and spark new energy in the partnership. An interdisciplinary review team of Forest Service and industry personnel was established in October 2006. The team developed a thorough list of questions to analyze the current winter sports program. To gain first hand information, the team met with forest and ski industry personnel at ski areas that represented a cross-section of the region, varying in geographic location and size of operation. Three field reviews were conducted and included visits to the Stanislaus NF, San Bernardino NF, Angeles NF, Eldorado NF and the Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit.
