Snippets about Lake Tahoe
• The February issue of Sunset magazine mentions Tahoe a few times – 968 Park Hotel in South Lake for being green, Northstar for a nighttime snowshoe, Truckee as a runner-up for a place to own a vacation home, and Lake Tahoe as third runner-up as a year-round playground (Bellingham, Wash., Bend, Ore., and Boulder, Colo., beat Tahoe).
• Tahoe has been selected for an International Mountain Bike Association Subaru Trail Care Crew visit this year.
• High Altitude Medicine & Biology has published a study linking suicides and people living at high altitudes.
• South Lake Tahoe’s Rosemary Manning writes about her Iron Girl experience for Marlo Thomas’ website – yes, That Girl.
• WinterFest, Lake Tahoe’s Gay/Lesbian Ski Week, is March 6-12.
• Did you know Lake Tahoe News had more than 100,000 pageviews in the last month from people accessing the site from nearly 100 countries and more than 2,600 cities? Ready to advertise? Contact Lisa Huard at lisahuard@sbcglobal.net.
Bellingham, WA, really?
Is TAMBA involved in IMBA Trail Care Crew coming to Tahoe? If not, they should be ;)
Altitude making one suicidal? or is it alcohol and/or dangerous sports causing one to lose their life?
Bellingham, WA??? Really.. clearly they haven’t been there! I have.. it’s very small town.. everything closes at 9pm.. they have a nice mall..
The suicide/altitude connection is horse-hockey. My father, my step-father and my mother all committed suicide and lived at sea level all their lives. Just goes to show you can get statistics to say anything you want them to.
The IronGirl Triathlon event was amazing, from the athletes to all of the support crews & volunteers. Seeing the local beginners enthusiam and improvement from the start of the summer to the day of the event sparked quite a few comments from spectators like trying to join the racers next fall.
