Your health is our top priority, and we have put special measures in place to keep all guests safe both during and after your trip.
Personal Protective Equipment - Guests will be required to wear face masks at all times on the snowcat. All staff members will wear the necessary PPE.
Snowcat Modifications - We’ve increased the ventilation and outside airflow in our snowcats.
Wellness Checks - Employees receive daily wellness checks to ensure they are healthy and symptom-free. If you or anyone in your group is experiencing symptoms, we will work directly with you to reschedule your tour.
Stringent Cleaning - We’ve increased the frequency of disinfecting surfaces and equipment between tours, and hand sanitizer will be available to all of our guests.
Contactless Waivers - Guests will now be emailed a link to complete releases online in order to reduce physical contact and promote social distancing.
The Best Kept Secret in Tahoe
Welcome to California’s only snowcat-accessed private backcountry ski area — 3,000 magical acres hidden in the heart of Tahoe where Pacific Crest Snowcats makes powder dreams come true.
PCS is a small group of local backcountry skiers, former ski patrollers and veteran Alaska heli-ski guides sharing the private backcountry wonderland in our own backyard.
Situated on the North Shore of beautiful Lake Tahoe, our operation is tucked beside the Pacific Crest itself accounting for some of the deepest snowfall in the region.
PCS offers a range of options for backcountry snowcat skiing and snowboarding including small group private snowcats, backcountry education courses, multi-day trips and more.
