  • Lake Tahoe was slammed with a mega snowstorm this past weekend (December 10th and 11th, 2022). I have never seen that much snow in Lake Tahoe or anywhere really! The storm turned Tahoe into a winter wonderland, but it wasn't without its issues. Cars were buried and residents were without power for days. P.S. I managed to eventually get my car out. 😂

      Hi I recently found your channel/videos. Great info packed in there as well. We visit Lake Tahoe a few times year but there are so many things we don't know about. I learned about a few hikes and the hot springs recently from your videos. I had no idea the hot springs were so close.
      I'm hoping to watch more of your videos today and find some winter ideas for an upcoming 2 day visit. One or two of our friends have mobility issues, so we are looking for memorable ideas to enjoy as a group. We really enjoyed the dinner cruise and snow mobiling on our last trip so we are looking for more adventures. I'm excited to see what you have shared.

    Hi, quick question. In your experience, usually how is the weather and how does south lake Tahoe looks like during the beginning of February? I've never been to Lake Tahoe before and I'll be there next February, I want to know, at least, what to expect and if you could give me some recommendations, I would appreciate it so much. Thanks in advance.

    Throw a plastic tarp over your car BEFORE the first snowfall. Shovel and push snow off the top of the car and then pull the tarp off. Voila!! Your car is snow free and crystal clear. Works like a charm the 9 years I lived in Tahoe.

    • @GabriellaViola
      @GabriellaViola  Год назад +1

      OMG that is an excellent idea!!! thank you for that tip! 💙💙

    • @jenniferm761
      @jenniferm761 Год назад

      And you can also use bungies and tuck the tarp in a little at your doors to keep it from blowing off in the wind. Also, always keep spray can(s) of windshield De- Icer handy; and I would keep a can in my purse to unfreeze any locks on the car (or anything else!) that got frozen sometimes. Another thing that really worked for me was wearing lightweight wrestling shoes with zip up snowmobile boots over them. If things get icy, you can pull shoe cables (metal grips) over the snowmobile boots. My snowmobile boots zipped up to my knees.
