RIP UP THE GROOMERS

Tahoe has more than a dozen ski resorts, totaling over 22,000 acres of inbounds terrain. Get a Tahoe Super 4 ticket for four days of skiing at Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows ($429; www. squawalpin­e.com) or purchase an Epic 3-Day pass for three days at Kirkwood, Northstar, or Heavenly ($336; www.snow.com).

Heavenly has a new GoPro ski and ride lesson this winter, where you’ll learn how to capture POV footage of your day on the hill. Or sign up for a mountain tour, where you’ll get to cut lift lines and be guided to the best stashes on the mountain. www.skiheavenl­y.com

At Ski Butlers, you can rent ski or snowboard gear online — they’ve got everything from first-timer gear to high-end powder skis to outerwear and accessorie­s — and they’ll deliver and fit your gear at your hotel or vacation rental the night before you hit the slopes. www.skibutlers.com
