Lake Tahoe

145 MILES FROM CHICO
Widely referenced as one of the most beautiful lakes in America, Lake Tahoe is where many students go to hit the slopes in winter. Several world-class ski resorts cater to both seasoned and beginner skiers, and most offer discounts for college students. The lake itself is breathtaking in its vastness and beauty, and you’d be hard pressed to find water bluer or clearer than this.
