Scenic Aerial
Cable Car Rides at Squaw Valley
The aerial Cable Car at Squaw rises from the valley floor and ascends 2,000
vertical feet to a mountain-top paradise called High Camp at 8,200 feet. You'll
relax in a new ultra-modern heated cabin as you enjoy views of sky-piercing
peaks and beautiful Lake Tahoe. Panoramic front and roof tinted windows provide
bird's-eye viewing of spectacular scenery that your mind will photograph. Once
you arrive at High Camp, you can enjoy a variety of activities and dining options
during the day and evening, winter and summer. The only way to return to the
valley floor is the way you came. The scenery on each ride up and down the
mountain is colored by the season and time of day, making each ride memorable.
