Based on what I've been hearing around town, it seems like a bigger better badder bike park would fit well into what they're trying to accomplish.

Hard to say though, since we're just getting into their 'real' season and that's all anyone is freaking out about right now.

I could easily see where most of their plans for winter involve a whole lotta resources being directed at things that aren't the bike park next summer though.

Cable Car and High Camp to be open weekends only:

* Weekends only September 7-19th.
* Closed after September 19th

Squaw Valley’s renowned mountain bike park will reopen on July 16, 2010 (and will be open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays for the summer) for the first time in almost a decade. Lake Tahoe’s legendary mountain bike park is back in action, with over fifteen miles of dedicated downhill single track and mountaintop cross-country trails.

Formerly the site of the Mountain Bike World Cup, Fat Tire Festivals and Downhill Mania events, Squaw Valley’s bike park has been completely rebuilt to increase the flow of the trails and incorporate more freeride elements using the mountain’s natural terrain.

Squaw Valley is also opening three intermediate cross-country trails on top of the mountain. Bikers can enjoy scenic loops through fields of wildflowers with views overlooking Lake Tahoe and the Sierra peaks.
