Squaw Valley USA, CA

Squaw Valley USA eh um resort de esqui que fomos visitar no ultimo fim de semana. Esse ano o Kuba e eu decidimos que iriamos para resorts diferentes todas as vezes e como nunca tinhamos ido ao Squaw, resolvemos ir com o Marek (Tio do Kuba). O sol estava otimo, mas estava muito muito calor! Uma maravilha.. nao tinha quase ninguem no resort - geralmente aos sabados e domingos fica lotado... mas a qualidade da neve tava pessima. Mas......... apesar de tudo, valeu a pena. Squaw Valley e um lugar ENORME com mais de 31 cadeirinhas (tipo teleferico), vila olimpica, muitos restaurantes, hoteis, e um spa. Chegamos la as 11 da manha e so saimos as 9 da noite. La em Squaw a gente pode esquiar a noite porque eles tem uns morros iluminados.


Last weekend we went to Squaw Valley USA ski resort with Marek (Kuba's uncle). This year Jakub and I decided we would visit different resorts every time we wanted to ski. Since we had never been to Squaw, we decided to give it a shot. The sun was great.. but it was very very HOT! It was awesome that there weren't that many people there... but the snow conditions were not so good. But.... despite all that, it was worth it. Squaw Valley is HUGE with 31 chair lifts, olimpic village, lots of restaurants, hotels and a spa! We arrived there at 11 in the morning and we left at 9pm. It was nice to try night skiing - available at Squaw.


Sem duvida, Marek estava pronto!! Without a doubt, Marek was ready for the challenge.
