I was able to check this place out last weekend. Mt. Lemmon Ski Valley is above Tucson, AZ with a base elevation of 8200 ft, offering 900' of vert is the most southern ski area in the US. It is a rad throwback type ski area with $45 lift tickets, minimal amenities, great terrain, minimal grooming and no snow making. It is rare they are open for more than a month or two each season but when they are and the snow is good I think the skiing here would be as good as anywhere. If anyone isn't comfortable skiing here without a guide I can volunteer my services or knowledge.
