Lookout Mountain has 200-acres of advanced terrain accessed by a high-speed quad, Lookout Mountain Express. Lookout

Mountain includes snowmaking, a vertical drop of 1,200-feet and five black-diamond runs: Prosser, Stampede, Gooseneck,

Boca, and Martis (named after reservoirs visible from Lookout Mountain). Lookout Mountain is the largest terrain expansion at

Northstar since the opening of the backside in 1983.A little adrenaline surge is always good. A leader and an innovator in

winter recreation, Northstar is always one of the first resorts in the Lake Tahoe basin to open freestyle terrain parks.

Northstar is home to seven freestyle terrain parks, not counting the new Paw Parks for kids, and two halfpipes. The

professional grooming crew shapes and cuts terrain features on a regular basis providing fresh options for skiers and

snowboarders. Northstar's grooming fleet includes freestyle terrain park-only snowcats and two halfpipe cutters, including

the new HPGR-17 superpipe cutter. This high tech cutter will enable Northstar to shape a 17-foot superpipe, the size used in

many professional snowboard events.



The superpipe and halfpipe are located at mid-mountain, Northstar's biggest freestyle terrain park (nearly one mile long!).

When the tabletops and big hits leave you breathless, don't forget to check out the Epicenter, an on-mountain hangout with

snacks, music and videos geared especially toward riders. Other freestyle terrain parks and features are located on various

runs on the front side of Northstar.
