Yep, no need to unbuckle or unbind.
"We worked closely with the design team at Starbucks to create a one-of-a-kind experience that we know our guests will truly enjoy," said Andy Wirth, Squaw Valley's president and CEO, in a news release. "Nowhere else in the world can skiers and riders enjoy a delicious Starbucks coffee without missing a beat on the slopes."
Squaw Valley's mountaintop Starbucks store is located at the Gold Coast mid-mountain complex and can be accessed by the resort's Funitel with or without ski or snowboard equipment. This Starbucks store will be open daily from 9 a.m to 4 p.m throughout the winter season, weather permitting.
This is definitely an Out There assignment with Christian Murdock's name on it!
