COVID 19 (Coronavirus ) Update

New restrictions in Lake Tahoe
The majority of the Tahoe Basin and the surrounding area has new
restrictions in place. Bars are closed. Restaurants can only serve take
out and outdoor dining with limitations. There are restrictions on
other businesses as well. The exception is the Stateline and Carson
City area. This is NOT BECAUSE THEY ARE SAFER. In fact, it is likely
the opposite that is the case. It is simply due to the makeup of the
counties and a lack of political will. Carson City currently has 131
cases per 100k, well above the threshold for monitoring, but they
aren't a county. The Stateline area is well above the monitoring
threshold, but they are part of Douglas County, which as a whole is
just approaching the threshold (nevermind that Stateline, Round Hill,
Glenbrook, etc. are the only part of the basin still 'open', but use
the same hospitals, and live within the same environs as the rest of
the basin and/or Carson City. Remember while your dining outside, there
is a kitchen full of people working inside and community transmission
is ongoing.
UPDATE (7/20)-With
the new cases reported over the weekend, El Dorado county as a whole is
one step closer to having to shut down more businesses. With a current
case rate of 94, we are just under the 100/100,000 case rate threshold.
The positivity rate was 7.8%. At 8% the previous threshold drops to
25/100,000. Half of the cases are in the South Tahoe region which
includes about 1/5th of the population. Expect additional closures and
restrictions soon.

About Lake Tahoe
Lake Tahoe is so many things, but it is never the
same thing twice. The same thundering waterfall in spring can become a
trickle through a golden Aspen grove in fall. In the winter it becomes
your favorite double black diamond, aptly named 'Waterfall'. It is a
balloon ride not just over the Jewel of the Sierra, but over dozens of
other majestic alpine lakes. It is a hike to any of these lakes. It is
the Lake itself. It is wilderness areas with no motorized access of any
kind. And next to that you'll find some of the best jeep trails
anywhere. It's a region known around the globe for it's world class
skiing. With summer as the busy season.
The sapphire blue waters present opportunities for fun and recreation
wherever you look. Summer brings fishing, swimming, boating, jet
skiing, water skiing, parasailing, or just hanging out at some of the
most beautiful beaches the world has to offer. You don't need to be in
a balloon or even on the lake to enjoy it's beauty. The 72 mile drive
around the lake is among the world's most beautiful. And the view from
any of the peaks
surrounding the lake is simply spectacular. For those not
looking for a hike of any difficulty, the Gondola at Heavenly provides
spectacular views.
Winter
brings a white coat to the blue world. The attention moves from the
beaches to the mountains, from the lakes to the backcountry. The region
is dotted with first class ski resorts and the backcountry shows up in
more ski and snowboard films than almost any other location.
Both the south and north shore have recently added much in the way of slopeside
accommodations,
working hard to attain the elusive ski
village atmosphere. It seems they've both succeeded.
The fishing in Lake Tahoe is excellent year round (but only
July
1-September 30 for it's tributaries). Charter a boat and have
everything ready for you or go it on your own with your own gear. You
can pick up your essential fishing rod and reel
supplies
here.
