High Camp, at the top of the Cable Car, offers
one of the most spectacular and unique kite flying locations in the
world.
Squaw Valley is proud to be hosting a 7th year of this special event
featuring kite flying demonstrations, kids kite building seminars, and
general
kite
mania, featuring great, live
music on our summer stage all day long at High Camp.
The Reno Nevada Kite Club will again help
organize this event, bringing some spectacular kites
and eager
enthusiasts
to
the unique high altitude location.
High Camp's summer breezes are counted on to provide the necessary
lift for the series of exciting demonstrations. Participants are
invited to bring their own kites, or, kites will be available for
sale at the site. Also planned are kite-making seminars and kids
programs.
Come spend a day by the pool or in Squaw Valley's beautiful upper mountain
meadows and enjoy the thrill and spectacle of kite flying and live blues
music at High Camp offers summer fun and activities for everyone! Restaurants,
ice
skating, swimming, hiking, and more!
