Editorial Review for Mount Lemmon Ski Valley – by Jim Cherry
In Short
The southernmost ski area in the continental United States is just an hour's drive from historic Tucson, which is known for its vibrant downtown arts scene and unique desert city ambience. The location means tourists can swim or golf the same day they enjoy the slopes. Mount Lemmon's ski runs are usually open from the middle of December to early April. Rentals, a ski school and a restaurant complete the resort.
