As one of Nebraska's biggest cities, Omaha has its share of urban sprawl, but spend a little time in town and find museums, pleasant parks, plenty of places to tuck into for an Omaha steak and somewhat unexpectedly, an indoor rainforest.
The Tahoe Donner ski area is the perfect setting for families, groups, first-time skiers and older skiers who want to take a break from the hustle and bustle of large crowds or to brush up on their ski skills. With a quad chair, a double chair and one surface rope tow, the area has a capacity of delivering 2,500 skiers per hour to reach the beautiful open-bowl slopes Tahoe Donner is known for.
The terrain park is perfect for snowboarders or skiers who like to ride more diverse and challenging terrain. Cross-country skiers can explore 39 scenic trails covering 100 km of beginning, intermediate and advanced terrain. The one-way trail system is carefully marked, signed and machine groomed with two sets of side-by-side diagonal tracks and a wide skating lane. Warming huts along the way provide skiers with a place to relax, take a break and enjoy the high mountain scenery.
