Palisades Tahoe and Alpine Meadows hosted their first U.S. Ski Team Day on April 7th, bringing together some of the world's top athletes for a day of fun and fundraising. The celebration expanded as Palisades Tahoe announced that it will host the 2013 and 2014 U.S. Nationals, and unveiled 'Tamara's Run' in honor of skiing legend Tamara McKinney. Tahoe TV was there to capture the excitement.
The Reno Tahoe Winter Games Coalition and California Winter Games Committee have announced the joining of forces and the creation of a cooperative Lake Tahoe Winter Games Exploratory Committee, a new joint California Nevada initiative, building on the existing efforts, dedicated to developing an Olympic Bid for the 2022 Winter Games.

It’s been 30 years since one of the deadliest avalanches in Sierra Nevada history broke loose at Alpine Meadows Ski Resort and killed seven people. For those of us who remember this tragic event on March 31, 1982, and the days of grief and hope that followed, it represents a benchmark in time. The 15.5 feet of snow that fell at the Central Sierra Snow Lab between March 27 and April 8, 1982, still ranks as the greatest single snowstorm total on record for Donner Summit.
The 2nd Annual Pain McShlonkey Classic delivered wild times and wackiness (a-la those in 'Hot Dog - The Movie') to Palisades Tahoe March 23-24th. Celebrating the life of legendary skier Shane McConkey, the event's antics and general unruliness were all for a good cause, raising funds for local school programs via the McConkey Foundation. Tahoe TV/SVTV was on hand to capture this exclusive highlight footage of the weekend's festivities.
