This live camera looks out over Olympic Valley, the mountain base area of Palisades Tahoe in the Sierra Nevada above Lake Tahoe. It is a useful window onto snow, sky and mountain conditions before you travel or while you plan a day outdoors.

A valley in the high Sierra

Olympic Valley sits about 1,900 metres above sea level on the northwest side of Lake Tahoe, surrounded by granite peaks and pine forest. The valley is best known as the site of the 1960 Winter Olympics and as home to the large Palisades Tahoe resort. Its alpine setting gives it a distinct mountain atmosphere that changes quickly with the weather and seasons.

What to watch and when

Depending on the view, the camera may show slopes, lifts, village rooflines and the surrounding peaks. Winter brings snow cover and the busiest scenes, while summer shows green meadows and hiking weather. Early mornings and late afternoons often bring the clearest light, and fast-moving clouds are common over the ridgelines.

Climate and getting around

Winters are cold and snowy, with heavy snowfall at the higher elevations, while summers are warm and dry with cool nights. The best time to visit depends on your plans, with spring and autumn offering quieter conditions. Nearby cameras include Silverado, Squaw Valley race services, River Ranch Lodge and Alpine Summit, which help you compare conditions across the area.
