I decided to make this because there seems to be a lack of Tahoe information in this forum. so here it is,
the Official Tahoe Thread

anything that has to do with Tahoe goes here; winter OR summer. Discuss weather, mountain conditions, meet ups and hook ups, epic stories, sick ass places, things to do, pretty much ANYTHING!

first off, here are some sites for general information on Tahoe, whether your a local or planning a trip:

North Shore Information http://www.gotahoenorth.com/
South Shore Information http://tahoesouth.com/
Vacation Information http://www.laketahoe.com/home

secondly, here are some links to some of the mountains around the area;

Squaw: http://www.squaw.com/
Alpine Meadows: http://www.skialpine.com/
Northstar: http://www.northstarattahoe.com/
Heavenly: http://www.skiheavenly.com/
Diamond Peak http://www.diamondpeak.com/
Sierra-at-Tahoe: http://www.sierraattahoe.com/
Kirkwood http://www.kirkwood.com/site/
Sugar Bowl http://www.sugarbowl.com/home
Boreal http://www.rideboreal.com/winter/
Mt. Rose http://www.mtrose.com/

Tahoe and the surrounding area is a dope place with some even doper people, with a shit ton of stuff to offer. Whether you're a weekend warrior on the mountain, or a bar hopper down in the basin, this thread is for you.

that is all, shred on fellow shredders.

than Reno? Yeah, probably.

I mean, it takes me only 20 mins to get to Cameron Park and start rolling up the hill. If there's sparse traffic around kyburz, like midweek in the morning or something, 50's a friggin breeze.

Hey Tahoe,

I just got a job at Northstar for the winter. I live in North Idaho. I need a place to live starting the first of November through mid-April at least..maybe I'll stay if I like it there. If anyone has a room or wants to go in on something pm me. I can't make it down there til November because of work up here. I figured I'd try Newschoolers before Craigslist. Also I need friends hahaha, I want to see what Tahoe is all about, plus ski every day. Lots of pow and a little bit of park. Let's go touring. And I have a bungee. Plus I'll be good on rent and bills.

I almost did it last year too but lack of snow was a huge issue for them. There's two sides of the team; Competition and Social. Comp team pays higher dues and competes throughout the season in halfpipe, slope, and i guess there are rail jams? The way graham made it sound was that basically if you go to all the comps you'll go to regionals at Mammoth. Oh and side note the team has its own keg....

They get a discounted squaw pass for $300 which is nice and sounds like they're gonna try and get the comp team to be at squaw... personally id rather go to alpine or boreal. You got the hook in mammoth, that drive is just a pain in the ass, especially those mono county pigs

agh thats shitty, i know a bunch of people from the mammoth area so i hope that if i ever get pulled over there, its someone i know. if you ever want to get into the town of mammoth quicker, take the scenic loop. never anyone back there and it spits you out right above the village.

$50 for social team and $150 for competitive. Includes a discount price on Squaw/Alpine college pass for $350. I honestly don't even think I'm gonna get a pass to anywhere but boreal or if I can score a job at n*

i'm thinking about applying at northstar as well. i want to be on the team but not spend money on a pass because i'm really broke. you know what i mean? haha like i want to get to know people in the skiing community who go to Nevada. but i also don't want to throw down $300 on a pass and $50 on fees.

Yeah i definitely feel ya on that. Sounds like the social team is def up your alley cause they get into all the parties and events and such just like comp members just don't compete. Have you called n* at all yet? I'm curious to see what their part time employment is gonna be like, last year they didn't have any of the weekenders work because of the lack of snow....

Might just get the boreal college pass for 130 and hang out there all season...

Probably not Parker. I'm pretty burnt out of Rose and I figure if I'm gonna work it might as well be at a bigger resort for a free pass. I'm gonna try to apply at northstar or squaw and then i'll ride boreal too.





And neither do I taylor, but thats why I'm gonna get one to get better haha
