If you've ever wanted to get a truly in-depth look at the mountains, who better to ask than a Forest Service Park Ranger?
With that in mind, the USDA Forest Service Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit is announcing the return of Ski With A Ranger at Heavenly Mountain Resort.
During the event, skiers and snowboarders are invited to Ski With A Ranger, beginning on January 31.
The USFS staff-led tours will depart from the top of the Gondola at Heavenly every week on Friday at 10:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m.
The guided tours last approximately one hour and will continue through March 28, as long as conditions and weather permit.
Participants in the tours must be intermediate level skiers/boarders or above, and must provide their own lift ticket. The tours themselves are free, and no reservations are required - though group size is limited to 12, and attendance is on a first-come, first-served basis.
For more information, contact Lannette Rangel via email at lannette.rangel@usda.gov or by phone at (530) 659-3003. Otherwise, you can visit the Ski With A Ranger website.
