Northern Tahoe Trukee

Haha ok. I got it. But man lift tickets r expwnsivee....

OK, JAMM0N, here's my last li'l bit of helpful input:

Is there even snow in Tahoe????

that's the most likely scenario.

 and just check the weather report regarding snow. im sick of people saying there's no snow. just because it hasnt dumped like last year shouldnt stop people from going out there. if you have to ask if there's snow, then there's not enough for you. no offense tlab, im ranting from previous people.

there's just too much to do in just 2 days. this year has been hit or miss too due to the snow. but hopefully there's a stronger pull at the end. i got my trip planned the 1st weekend of march.

Originally posted by JAMM0N well i thought we were going a lot of places in tahoe but we ended up making a small trail @ the place we were renting out on the first day. 2nd day was northstar. more like flatstar. a lot of runs open but none of them really groomed. most of it was just hard packed and probably all man made. last run was the challenger. if anyone has been down that run. the first half was fun but the 2nd was killer. too steep for me to make any transitions or turns and a bunny slop @ the end of it. *_* overall it was fun. wish my friends had more money and time to explore :/ oh well.

if I remember correctly, you were in Tahoe around wed, jan 25th (?)  If that's the case, that was only 2 days after a 3-4 foot dump.   That was all natural snow...the rest is self explanatory. 

"flatstar?"...you're obviously enamored with that word, but shouldn't be using it since the majority of N* is as steep or steeper than anything in Wisconsin.  When you explore all of N*, then explore several other resorts in tahoe to compare, you might refer to it with a derogatory word 

i believe that i lost brain cells from reading this thread.. jam.. C'MON MAAAAAAAN!

yea. this thread is the reason i had to start a different one for kirkwood. it just hurt to keep trying to go back here for info.

yes they do have steeper hills than we do. longer runs also. hence challenger scared the shit out of me when i looked @ it.

as a note bohemia was a blast though gave me a totally different perspective. definitely a different feel of terrain. now i think i have the balls to make it down any black with the exception there are no trees in my way

i wish i went to kirkwood but it was on the other side of the lake of where my friend lives. he has a season pass to heavenly but kirkwood was so cheap i dont know how we didn't find the time to go.

i heard it dumped before i left wi and your right about the date it was like the 26-29th

Originally posted by Alkasquawlik I thought you said you guys were staying in South Lake...? And if you're staying in North Lake, and it's been snowing, the reason why you didn't go to Kirkwood is because it's a royal PITA to drive there especially when you have other resorts (which have more snow right now) closer to you.
