The nearest ski resort to Reno is Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe. At over 8,200 feet, this resort is known mostly as a great ski area for locals, but visitors can find long, well-groomed trails, 1,200 acres of ski and board terrain, two nice ski lodges and a play area for children. The resort also offers ski and boarding lessons and an average snowfall of 350 inches. The Winter's Creek Lodge on the East Bowl area of the resort is a high-class lodge with great views of Washoe Valley, Reno and Carson City. It's a great place for weddings and other special events.

- Holiday Attractions: "The Mt. Rose Hike is free, but get there early to get parking at the summit."
- Best for Holiday Attractions Because: During the holiday season, high-elevation Mount Rose has some of the best snow in the area.
