This camera looks out over River Ranch Lodge in Olympic Valley, a mountain valley in the Sierra Nevada above Lake Tahoe. It is useful for seeing the mountain conditions as they are right now, from the valley floor. Refreshed regularly, the image helps you judge light, cloud and snow without guessing from a forecast alone.
A valley under the Sierra
Olympic Valley sits at roughly 1,900 metres in the northern Sierra Nevada, a short drive from the north shore of Lake Tahoe. It is best known as a winter sports destination, with ski slopes rising steeply on the surrounding peaks. In summer the valley turns green and quiet, and the surrounding granite and pine forest give the area its alpine character.
What the view shows and when
The picture is a live image of the lodge area, so you will mostly see the valley, the buildings and the sky above the peaks. Snow cover, clouds drifting over the ridges and the change from morning shade to afternoon sun are the things most worth watching. Early morning and late afternoon often show the best contrast on the mountains, while winter days bring the most noticeable changes in snow.
Planning a visit
Winters are cold and snowy, with heavy snowfall common from December to March, while summers are warm and dry with cool nights. Spring and autumn can be changeable, so check the weather block on this page before travelling. The nearby cameras on Palisades Tahoe and Alpine Meadows show other slopes and village points in the same valley, a useful comparison if you are deciding where to go.
