Due to high avalanche danger, Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows were closed yesterday. The mountain operations teams spent the day hard at work preparing as much terrain as possible for the opening today. We recommend keeping an eye on the Squaw Alpine app for real-time operations updates, including lift and terrain openings.
