At Mt. Rose-Ski Tahoe, a dedication to sustaining and strengthening the region's precious natural resources is evident. In addition to participating in SkiGreen, the resort's efforts include:

• A recycling and waste-reduction programs that resulted in 15.8 cubic yards of solid waste avoiding the landfill during the 2005/06 winter season
• The improvement of water quality through erosion and sediment controls and the implementation of energy- and water-efficiency design, both on the hill and in the lodges; protection of natural wetlands and restoration of native vegetation.
