Video: Northstar Highlands Gondola Experience

Northstar's Highlands Gondola services village condos and parking, offering direct mid-mountain access. But this pulse gondola uses fixed-grip cabins rather than the detachable grips found on a typical gondola, resulting in an experience that may surprise some first-time riders.

This lift tops out at the mid-mountain Ritz-Carlton Lake Tahoe and was built as part of the hotel development.

Northstar is a ski resort located in Truckee, California near Lake Tahoe. See our full mountain review here.
