When you ask people about Tahoe, it is often said “they came for the winter, but stayed for the summer.” There are arguably better ski destinations in North America, but I’ve never heard anyone claim that their ski town is better than Tahoe in the summer. This past weekend, I had a super fun multi-sport day wakesurfing with my friends Mark and Julie and then rallying an all-female crew to ride to “the Bench” – a technical 15 mile out and back mountain bike ride along the scenic Tahoe Rim Trail.

My very talented friend Adam just released this video summing up his winter and summer visits to his home of Lake Tahoe while he is away at school. Check it out. It will make you wish you grew up here.
I’m continuously grateful to call Lake Tahoe home and will be savoring the last week of summer!
