The management isn't the best (they often stop lifts early, the lines are often too tight when fully loaded, etc) and the terrain isn't as aggressive as some other resorts nearby, but it's still a good place to go and get your turns in. I consider this my local mountain and am always happy to ski here. There's plenty of skiable acres to keep you interested and the bigger terrain is pretty well separated from the advanced so the lift lines on the black runs aren't too bad. Beware the Bay area crowd on the weekends...
