Local ski and snowboard legends frequent the slopes of the surrounding area’s ski resorts but some have even made Tahoe/Truckee their permanent home.
Among the activities Lake Tahoe is known for, skiing and snowboarding exist at the top of the list. With countless ski resorts, beautiful views, and an olympic historical background, Tahoe might very well be the place to be! Throw in the chance of running into a number of local legends who have competed in the Winter Olympics, X games, World Championships, etc. and you have the perfect day on the slopes lined up.
Some report seeing skier Glen Plake at Heavenly, skier Jonny Moseley at Palisades, or a number of other local legends on their skis or boards including Jeremy Jones, Nate Holland, Jamie Anderson, Julia Mancuso, David Wise, and Daron Rahlves. Anyone with any interest in snow sports will have heard of, if not completely obsessed over, these names and the achievements each athlete has earned.
