HistoryNorthstar was a former lumber site once owned by the Douglas Lumber Company of Truckee and was acquired by Fibreboard when they purchased Douglas in 1967.[1] Its original name was Timber Farm, but was changed to Northstar-at-Tahoe when the mountain opened {{Years or months ago|1972}} in December 1972.[2] The first ski resort amenities included 5 chairlifts. The trails were designed by Luggi Foeger, an Austrian, who had fled Europe during World War II.[3] In 2007, CNL Lifestyle Properties acquired Northstar, which since 2010 has been operated under a triple-net lease by Vail Resorts. Vail also owns Heavenly Ski Resort and Kirkwood Mountain Resort both at Lake Tahoe, four other ski resorts in Colorado, including Vail, Breckenridge, Keystone, and Beaver Creek, and other ski resorts. Previously, Northstar had been owned by Booth Creek, a holdings company managed by George Nield Gillett Jr., the owner of the now defunct Gillett Holdings, a former owner of Vail Associates.[4] In 2016 EPR Properties agreed to purchase Northstar California in a package deal along with multiple other properties from CNL Lifestyle Properties for approximately $456 Million. TerrainNorthstar features 3,170 acres of terrain, with 60% of trails designated for intermediate skiers. Grooming on trails is well-established and offers many "groomers" for resort visitors. In 2015, Ski Magazine listed the resort as the 24th best ski area in the western United States.[5] SnowfallAccording to resort sources, the annual snowfall at Northstar is 350 inches per year. Snow totals are measured at the mountain summit and are counted from the first snowfall until closing day.[6] {{Graph:Chart|width=600|height=200|xAxisTitle=Ski Season|yAxisTitle=Snow Totals (inches)|type=rect|x=2010-11,2011-12, 2012-13, 2013-14,2014-15,2015-16|y=667,301,334,200,133,412}}VillageNorthstar Village is based on a small village layout that centers a square which, in winter, has an ice skating rink.[7] Dining options[8] include: -Tavern 6330'-Rubicon Pizza Company-Copper Lane-Los Arcos Mexican Grill-Petra-TC's PubReferences1. ^Fibreboard Corporation Retrieved June 13, 2018. 2. ^http://www.northstarcalifornia.com/info/ski/media/history.asp 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.tmrrealestate.com/history-northstar-part-v-everything-middle-nowhere/|author=Ann McBride|website=History of Northstar|title=History of Northstar Part V – “Everything in the Middle of Nowhere!”|publisher=Tahoe Mountain Reality|date=March 7, 2013|accessdate=June 13, 2018}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.coloradoskihistory.com/areahistory/vail.html|title=Vail Resort History|publisher=Colorado Ski History|year=2010|accessdate=June 13, 2018}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.skinet.com/ski/galleries/2015s-top-ranked-western-ski-resorts?i=55593749|title=2015's Top-Ranked Western Ski Resorts|website=Ski Net|publisher=Ski Magazine|date=September 18, 2014}} 6. ^{{cite news|title=Pummeled for years by drought, Sierra ski economy on the rebound|author=Peter Fimrite|date=March 18, 2016|url=https://www.sfchronicle.com/science/article/Pummeled-for-years-by-drought-Sierra-ski-economy-6923416.php|work=San Francisco Chronicle|accessdate=June 13, 2018}} 7. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.northstarcalifornia.com/explore-the-resort/activities-and-events/winter-activities.aspx|title=Winter Activities|website=www.northstarcalifornia.com|language=en|access-date=2018-11-20}} 8. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.northstarcalifornia.com/explore-the-resort/the-village/dining.aspx|title=Dining|website=www.northstarcalifornia.com|language=en|access-date=2018-11-20}} External links
