Sugar Bowl, USA
Freeriding
Freeriders will be pleased with Sugar’s nice offering of trees, back bowls and morning powder trails. The black runs on Mt Disney will sort out the wimps from the men, with some very challenging trails especially the area off the Silver Belt chair lift where you will find a steep cliff section.Freestylers
Freestylers are more than welcome here and have full access to all three areas. From the top of the Mt.Judah lift you can access the Coldstream Terrain Park then the huge Golden Gate park. They are littered with tables, quarters, kickers and numerous rails and boxes for the jibbers. The Nob Hill Park is great for beginners and has a few rollers and boxes. The x-games/FIS standard superpipe’s located at the bottom the Lincoln express, and is usually in fine condition.Pistes
PISTES. Most of the runs are fairly short and can be a little uneven, but that said Sugar Bowl is still okay with a few good cruising trails.Beginners
Beginners will find that the best laid out easy terrain is available on Mt Judah, which has a particularly good easy section for novices to shine on. The section of the Christmas tree chair is also noted for being a good easy area.Resort Statistics
