Funny. Sugar Bowl for intermediates and beginners? Ever skied Perko's or taken the PR to Megan's, Silver Bullet Face, East Gully, Middle Palisade or West Palisade? Obviously not. I'm an expert off-piste skier with 35 years experience in the Sierra (averaging 30+ days a year and approximately 20,000 feet a day)...I go to Sugar bowl to ski the expert terrain not found anywhere locally...I mean, if you want to ski expert terrain with ruts and moguls, go to Squaw.
