For nearly 50 years, Tahoe Donner Downhill Ski Resort has provided families a unique and affordable ski experience. We are committed to being “the best place to begin” and offer ski instruction for children as young as 3 years old.

Got to teach snow boarding today for first time all season to a friend from Mill Valley. After she had a bad experience learning in Europe she came to Tahoe Donner and did great. Tahoe Donner is the perfect place to learn to ski and snow board. I forgot how much I loved teaching people a new sport. It can be life changing. Appropriately today is Jake Day honoring Jake Burton the inventor/promoter of the sport. RIP Jake #tahoedonnerdownhill #snowboarding #truckee #tahoedonnerskiresort #tahoedonnerassociation #tahoe #yoloaventuras #jakeburton

First night of a seven day event of snow. Spent 10 hours grooming in a blizzard last night. Learned a lot, and had a blast. #blizzard #tahoe #tahoedonnerdownhill #donnerlake #truckeecalifornia #pistonbully #pistonbully400 #snow. The first photo is out Christmas tree on our deck. The machine is what I drive at work. The last picture is what it looked like out my front window all night long. We would make one pass and when we returned could not see our tracks

What if every night you got to play in the snow with a big red monster tank, you got to eat dinner under the stars and watch the moon the rise, and in the morning you got to watch the sunrise from a mountain top?

This is what it looked like at work last night. After a storm brought 20+ inches of fluffy powder to #tahoedonnerdownhill and a bunch of people played in it. It is our job to turn it back into the groomed corduroy that everyone expects when they get to the mountain. It is magic!

Making my way back home sore from head to toe after a full day of snowboarding 🏂 yesterday in Truckee. Made it down some slopes without falling. Still a lot to learn before I start doing flips and tricks, but definitely feel like this was an accomplished weekend. Thank you to kyle__quan & jiselle_loren for teaching us the ropes. S/O to tahoedaves for making our rental experience quick • easy • and simple.
