In summertime, Lake Tahoe’s majestic alpenglow bathes enchanting North Lake Tahoe in hues of pinks, purples and blues. Few places in the world can boast so much grandeur alongside so much natural beauty. With its diverse array of recreational activities along with a splendid selection of culinary delights, summer in North Lake Tahoe is a must do on any travelers list. During the winter months, snow settles silently like a fine dust upon the granite edges surrounding the Lake. Located in a glacial valley along the northern crest of the Sierra Nevada’s western slope, its sculpted mountain architecture appears with a startling suddenness along a shore of this pristine lake. The big peaks, the famed landmarks and towering trees stand frosted in a winter cloak that can only be described as enchanting.

tahoe city Washoe tribesmen named their campsite on the corner of Lake Tahoe “Daubey Odu” – roughly translated as “running over”, referring not to the Lake, but to the riches of the area’s fish and game. However, Tahoe’s true wealth was not discovered until 1864 when local prospectors laid out a small town at the intersection of the Truckee River – Lake Tahoe’s only outlet, and the Lake, and named the town Tahoe City. Originally constructed as a port of call and end of the line for the Lake Tahoe Railway – historically and today – Tahoe City stands as the Gateway to all that is the Tahoe Basin. Time has chiseled away at some of the edges of its history, but its huge array of yearwater sports in summer continues to make Tahoe City a town with unstoppable charm. Tahoe City is one of Tahoe’s most popular destinations because of its quaint downtown

“Tahoe City offers a little bit of everything” explains Dave Wilderotter – longtime owner of Dave’s Ski and Board Shop, a popular downtown business. “On one hand you have lots of shops restaurants and live entertainment, but on the other, it’s also a great place to just stroll and relax. More than anything it’s a great hub for water sports and snow sports” says Dave.
Tom Zikas
In summer, Commons Beach, in the heart of downtown, comes alive with kayakers, swimmers, sunbathers, evening movies and free concerts on the beach. The weekly organic farmers market is just the ticket for stocking up for a week of picnics and beach barbecues.

In the winter, Tahoe City is a popular destination due to its proximity to the mountains. Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows are just a 10-minute drive away, for that matter any ski resort in North Lake Tahoe is just a short and scenic drive away. Just a few steps from any of its fine lodging options, winter vacationers will find easy access to backcountry and Nordic trails. Cross country and snow shoe aficionados appreciate the easy access to the many trails that goes on for miles.

westshore In 1909, Arthur Jost built a small pier and hotel at the water’s edge five miles south of Tahoe City in a sheltered section of the lake under the shadows of Ellis Peak. He called his friendly resort “Homewood and all the name implies.” Today the location’s real charm rests along its 21 miles of shoreline, with bike paths and beaches in the summer months and in winter, Homewood Mountain Resort (one of Tahoe’s “secret” ski resorts). Westshore also boasts the newly refurbished 1960 Winter Olympic Cross Country trails at Sugar Pine Point State Park and the historic sledding hill at Granlibakken Resort.

Outdoor attractions are our first act but there’s plenty of attraction indoors to complete the show. Spindleshank’s dining room is a set designer’s vision of a bistro; intimate and pine-paneled where everyone talks to everyone else. Notable lakefront eateries such as Garwood’s and Captain Jon’s bring the lake and the mountains right into their dining room. Their menus are islands of culinary creativity amid a wide selection of dishes. If the fresh air, solitude and piles of white clouds over the two communities are not enough to hold the modern world at bay, a variety of motel accommodations have even more pristine appeal.

Legend has it that at the turn of the century local businessman Joe King obtained logger Robert Sherman’s large lakefront parcel in an all-night poker game. Located only a mile from the Nevada border, visiting Kings Beach is never a gamble. At first glance, Kings Beach may seem like a sleepy little town – but trust us - it contains enough charming shops and hidden treasures to surprise the most “been there, done that” vacationer.
22 GoTahoeNorth.com
Its epicenter of activity is the Kings Beach State Recreation area, once site of Joe King’s mansion. Here, the winds blow at their freshest against wide unbroken scenery and secluded sand dunes. Sunshine streams down on fresh-faced beachcombers enjoying an array of water sports and activities. Visitors can enjoy everything from parasailing and stand up paddle-boarding to volleyball and crafts shows. Just down the road, the Old Brockway Golf Course touts itself as one of the regions oldest and demands strong drives and a sound short game. At night, visitors revel at memorable meals provided at a variety of ethnic restaurants such as Lanza’s (Italian), Caliente (Mexican) and Hiro Sushi (Japanese) to mention a few. Kings Beach offers a plentiful variety of moderate priced accommodations all with a close proximity to all of North Tahoe’s ski resorts.

crystal bay Just above the glittering casinos in Crystal Bay, the Stateline Fire Lookout offers a vantage point unlike any other at Lake Tahoe. A short and scenic hike takes you to a point high above the lake that is surrounded by dwarf oak and old growth pine forest. From this 7,077 foot crest, spectacular vistas of Crystal Bay, Brockway Springs and the entire Tahoe Basin unfold below you. Self guided sign posts walk you through the history of the region, which were once the stomping grounds of Mark Twain and many lumber barons in the 1800’s. Today, this jewel is known more for dining, gaming and entertainment. The Cal-Neva Resort, the Crystal Bay Club and the Tahoe Biltmore Lodge and Casino each offer excellent dining, gaming, hotel rooms and a bustling music scene. The Crystal Bay’s Crown Room stage and Red Room Cabaret offer world class rock, blues, jazz and comedy, and of course dancing, every day of the week. The Cal-Neva, once owned by Frank Sinatra and frequented by the likes of the Rat Pack, The Kennedys and Marilyn Monroe, straddles the border of California and Nevada. It’s rumored to be where Marilyn spent her last weekend. Past owners and guests claim it’s haunted by the ghosts of some of those famous celebs. For a bit of romance, The Soule Domain restaurant adjacent to the soon to be redeveloped Tahoe Biltmore, offers fine dining in a historic log cabin built by Harry Riley at the same time as the original Cal Neva Lodge in 1927. The hearth features stones quarried at Crystal Bay and exposed log beams from local mills. GoTahoeNorth.com 25

incline village Incline Village occupies the most northern niche of Lake Tahoe. This Nevada town received its name from “The Great Incline of the Sierra Nevada” a funicular that was used to carry timber nearly 1,400 vertical feet from the lake and over the mountain for use in the silver mines of nearby Virginia City. Later in its history it was famous as the home of the Ponderosa Ranch of 1960’s TV fame. A century later and just bordering the old home of Hoss, Pa and Little Joe, the Flume Trail uses the route of the historic flume, and is one of the most famous mountain bike rides in the world. The backside of the trail is home to one of Tahoe’s true jewels, Diamond Peak ski resort, known as one of Tahoe’s premier family resorts. its vistas of both the lake to the west and the high desert valleys to the east.

northstar Little did George Schaeffer realize 140 years ago that the site of his logging camp would become home to some of North America’s best skiing and riding. Today, boarders and skiers rocket down mile-long runs from the backside of Northstar’s Mount Pluto or carve off-piste turns through stands of lodge pole from the top of Sawtooth Ridge. While the backside of Mount Pluto offers everything from ridgeline cruising to narrow bump trails and steep drops, the resort’s front side combines lightly forested glades and wide-boulevard groomers that stretch to an expanding base area. Northstar’s family programs are some of the best in North America, but it is the resort’s billion-dollar expansion that is creating the most attention. The newly completed Village at Northstar offers visitors an appealing array of world class accommodations, shops, restaurants, and all with ski-in, ski-out accessibility. Sheer luxury is discovered at the mid - mountain Ritz Carlton Hotel, which is scheduled for completion in the 2009, and will feature a world class spa in addition to the uncompromising ambiance that is Ritz Carlton. Summer months, the destination revels with special events and music, roller skating, and outdoor movies. Guests enjoy activities composed of hiking, mountain biking, fly-fishing and scenic lift rides all in a dog-friendly and family-friendly environment.

truckee Truckee was named by its first pioneers, after the residing Paiute chief Tru-hi-zo. The historic railroad settlement prides itself on being all things to all people. It retains the feel of a rarefied mountain outpost, yet has grown into a genuine and sophisticated community, chock-full of excellent dining, quality lodging, and unique shopping and maintains a legacy as one of the Wild West’s favorite watering holes.
Set against a bold blue sky and rugged Sierra Nevada Mountains, the town is a launch pad for adventure. Nearby Donner Summit offers world-class alpine and Nordic skiing. Sugar Bowl Ski Resort is a powder skier’s dream with its wide open bowls and high and dry elevation, at the very peak of the summit. Thrill seekers explore the vast backcountry. Others escape to their own solitude, fishing and exploring the areas numerous lakes and streams. Lets not forget those who enjoy the challenging greens and fairways at some of the regions best golf courses – Coyote Moon, Old Greenwood and Northstar to name a few.

squaw valley Claims to fame are commonplace amongst Sierra Nevada resorts, but no other ski area in the west embodies old-world alpine spirit like Squaw Valley. Site of the 1960 Winter Olympics, Squaw Valley’s allure has always been its imposing geography. Carved from six peaks spread over 4,000 acres and served by 33 lifts, the resort is the very definition of down-to-earth carving. Yet for all the eye-popping pitches the mountain is friendly to all, cradling the novice and purring to families. Many runs are on gentle, soothing trails that offer a wide spectrum of delights. Off-slope, Squaw’s base area offers climbing walls, shopping, Nordic touring, snowshoeing, and a bevy of bars and restaurants. The 4-star slope-side Resort at Inn, the Squaw Valley Lodge and the Village at Squaw Valley complement the resort’s magic. At night upscale eateries such as Graham’s, PlumpJack, and Six Peaks at the
Chris Talbot
Squaw Creek and other luxurious accommodations including PlumpJack Squaw Valley
Resort at Squaw Creek create some of Northern California’s finest cuisine. Wildflowers abound throughout the valley in the spring and summer months. Visitors hike up Shirley Canyon, or swim, ice skate and dine at High Camp. Golfers tee off amidst a stunning natural setting at the Resort at Squaw Creek’s Robert Trent Jones golf course.

alpine meadows Off-piste, wilderness skiing complemented by flawlessly groomed cruiser runs make Alpine Meadows a cradle of Sierra Nevada skiing and snowboarding. The resort’s high valley floor (6,835 feet) guarantees abundant snowfall. Even better than the snow is the terrain which covers 2,000 acres of glades, groomers and the resort’s famous steeps. Its multitude of fall-lines offer views of cobalt-colored Lake Tahoe from nearly every run. Best of all are Alpine’s “Adventure Zones,” which provide a backcountry style experience within the ski-patrolled boundary. The Chalet – its mountainside restaurant, is located in a nest of pine trees midway up the mountain. It’s a great place to rendezvous and sit on the sundeck and enjoy sandwiches, quiche and homemade soups. The bar in the historic River Ranch Lodge is a local gathering place with front row views of the Truckee River. In summer the patio overlooking the river is a great place Tom Zikas
for lunch as well as stopping point for the three mile long Class I Truckee River rafting trips. The River Ranch summer concert series is held on the river front patio. Alpine Meadows Stables offer horseback rides across Bear Creek and through the forest. The well-marked, popular Five Lakes Trail ascends into a red fir forest to a cluster of lakes great for swimming and exploring.
