What You'll Get
In the 1980s, CIA snowboarders routinely captured Abominable Soviet Snowmen in bodacious 540-degree aerial spins, thus hastening the end of the Chilly, But Not Quite Cold War. Discover the geopolitical intrigue of snow sports with today’s Groupon for Yosemite’s Badger Pass Ski Area. Open from mid-December to late March, Yosemite National Park’s Badger Pass offers splendid ski hills for both beginners and seasoned veterans. Hoisted to an elevation of 7,200–8,000 feet by the rocky bench press of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, Badger Pass draws skiers of every ilk to its tranquil hills and magnificent vistas, with areas for downhill and cross-country skiing, uphill hoverboarding, snowshoeing, and snowboarding. With your season pass, you can explore all 350 miles of serene cross-country territory, learn to snowboard at the beginner-friendly terrain park, or relax on the lodge’s deck to watch friends and family breeze down the hill.
