    I can pretty much guarantee you massive crowds in Tahoe.  It seems to
get worse every year -- by "massive", I mean 45 minute waits.  If you are
a good skier, you can tackle the harder runs, which generally don't have
lines that are quite as long (notable exception: KT-22 and Red Dog @Squaw).
Personally I am blowing all my ski money on one week of Aspen right after
the high season ends (~ Jan 6).

--good luck
