~30 minutes north in Wofford heights is Alta Sierra ski resort, small but beautiful! Majority of terrain is beginner to intermediate. They offer skiing, snowboarding and my favorite: snow tubing, including rentals and lessons if you need. They are a day use area. More information at www.altasierra.com
