SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – Valued for the transferable, unrestricted access it provides to whomever has it in their possession, the Ski California Gold Pass is unlike other ski passes and it’s on sale now for the 2025-26 season in limited quantities until it sells out.
One of the most exclusive passes in the ski industry, the Gold Pass provides access to 36 downhill and cross-country ski areas in California and Nevada. Only a limited number of passes are available for sale annually, making it one of the most coveted ski passes for ski and snowboard enthusiasts, and organizations who purchase them to make them available as an employee perk.
“With no blackout dates and direct lift access at most resorts, the Gold Pass makes it easy to explore all that our member resorts have to offer,” said John Rice, Ski California president. “That includes 36 downhill and XC areas, 37,000 total acres of skiable terrain, 45,000 vertical feet, and 350 miles of XC trails. For passionate skiers and riders, this is the ultimate ski pass.”
The 2025 Ski California Gold Pass is available for $4,125 per pass while supplies last. Learn more and buy online at skicalifornia.org/gold-pass.

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – The Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project includes multi-benefit stormwater treatment based on natural systems (native plants and infiltration into soil) and drainage solutions for localized flooding. This process will spread, treat, infiltrate, and retain urban runoff from roadways, commercial areas, and other high-priority, directly connected urban areas to protect the clarity of Lake Tahoe. It also includes benefits requested by the community and stakeholders, including public space, new naturalized play structures, and improved active transportation paths.
After a planned winter shutdown, construction activities are now back underway and expected to continue through the 2025 construction season.
Construction of Phase I of the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement resumed on Monday, April 21, 2025. Construction activities will include installation of storm water collection, conveyance, and treatment infrastructure within the Tahoe Valley Area Plan. Streets impacted by storm drain installation will include James Avenue and Eloise Avenue between 3rd Street and Tahoe Keys Boulevard, and Council Rock Drive between Washington Avenue and Tahoe Keys Boulevard. Streets impacted by paving will include D Street between Julie Lane and Bonanza Avenue, F Street between Margaret Avenue and Bonanza Avenue, Bonanza Avenue between B Street and F Street. It is anticipated that Phase 1 construction will be complete in September.
Construction of Phase 2 of the Tahoe Valley Stormwater and Greenbelt Improvement Project began on Tuesday, April 22, 2025. Construction activities will include tree removal in the greenbelt, installation of storm water collection, conveyance and treatment infrastructure, associated water utility infrastructure adjustments, and construction of multi-use paths and recreation areas in the greenbelt area behind The Crossings. Work will also take place in the vicinity of 4th Street, Barton Avenue, and Helen Avenue.
