  Coppervail (Coppervale) is a great place for powder days and having fun with friends. I know the people that work there and they are very nice and respectful and will help you without hesitation. It's not a locals hill, it's a cool little place to go when you don't feel like making the drive to Tahoe or Shasta and it's cheaper! It is a little tough to get used to the surface lift but there is somebody always there to help you get the hang of it.

  Coppervale is a small and quiet locals mountain/hill, and they like it that way. They shun newcomers and are quite anal about their beloved surface lift. My experiences included several people, including a couple of employee's, and even one of the owners being very disrespectful and in some ways in an inappropriate manner in giving direction as to the correct ways to "use their lift and mountain." They have many rules which are not posted anywhere on or around the mountain and are unspoken until you disobey one. I was constantly being yelled at for not using the lift right, or riding where I "wasn't supposed to" when there was nothing posted regarding restrictions. Everyone has a tendency to mean-mug as you pass them, instead of that friendly good-time smile you see everywhere else. My companions experienced somewhat similar results as we felt unwelcome by everyone. The price paid for lift tickets are also way not worth the price. Even if I had a good time paying the extra 4 dollars to go to Mt. Shasta would well have been worth not having to ride surface lifts all day long.
