Snowshoeing 101Did you know snowshoeing is a great way to navigate hiking trails that aren’t accessible by skis and is also a great way to stay fit during the winter? Not to mention, it’s an inexpensive way to enjoy the winter landscape in Tahoe! Snowshoeing is an easy activity you can gather the whole family for and it doesn’t require a lift ticket. As the saying goes, “if you can walk, you can snowshoe.” It’s also a great way to extend your hiking season into the winter and all ability levels can enjoy the sport together. Here’s what you need to know: Types of Snowshoes: Flat Terrain Snowshoes Perfect for beginners. These are designed for easy walking and ideal for families and people looking to try out the sport. Renting or purchasing flat terrain snowshoes offers the best value for entry-level snowshoeing. Rolling Terrain Snowshoes Best for hikers. These snowshoes are designed for hiking on steeper terrain and are great for all terrains, except for super steep and icy conditions. This snowshoe would be the step up from entry level and perfect for people looking to adventure off the beaten track. Mountain Terrain For the advanced hiker and mountaineer. These snowshoes are designed for icy, steep terrain and are made for the expert snowshoeing experience. This rugged snowshoe is built for harsh conditions and for adventurers who are looking to blaze their own trail through the wilderness or try out the more difficult hiking paths. Snowshoeing Tips: Choose the right snowshoe! Meaning, be sure to get properly sized snowshoes whether you’re renting or purchasing a new pair. Comfort is key with any outdoor activity to avoid injuries. Use trekking poles or ski poles to help you balance and provide stability when snowshoeing. Match your footwear to your snowshoeing style. The more rugged the snowshoeing adventure, the more rugged your shoe should be. Insulated and waterproof boots with thick soles are ideal, along with wool or synthetic socks to help keep your feet dry. Layer up! Dress for the cold and snow but be sure to wear breathable layers that you can remove or be active in when you work up a sweat. Also, be sure to wear waterproof outerwear so you stay dry in the snow. If it’s your first time snowshoeing, start out on hard-pack snow. It’s easier to maneuver on hard-pack snow than fresh powder. Just like any hiking adventure, over prepare by bringing extra water, food, supplies and a trail map. Are you ready to navigate the beautiful winter landscape in Tahoe via snowshoe?

How to Pack For Your Ski TripGetting ready to hit the powdery slopes? You are surely in for a treat. Whether you are planning on riding down the mountain on a snowboard or skis, the thrill of gliding on the snow is a unique experience unlike any other outdoor activity. One of the privileges of winter sports like snowboarding and skiing is that you do it in a natural, peaceful, scenic setting. For some, this is one of the things that make the thrill even more special. If you are an avid skier, you probably have many reasons why you love it so much and a full checklist of items to pack. For the novices – the ones who are not even sure what to pack for their ski trip – here are some suggestions. First, if you are just getting started on snowboarding or skiing, chances are you do not own much equipment. Maybe you own a snow jacket and some snow pants, but the whole package of boots, goggles and skis or a snowboard is something you may not purchased yet. This is fine, because equipment can very easily be rented, either at the site of your ski trip, or before you leave. If you are deciding whether to buy or rent your snow equipment, here are a few ground rules. If you are planning a trip for a child, it is a better idea to rent, because children grow fast and will quickly outgrow their equipment. Even if you are an adult, the decision whether to rent or buy snow equipment is a tricky one. Some who only go on one trip a year decide to invest in snow equipment because even if you only rent snow equipment a few times, it turns out to cost as much as buying it and being able to use it whenever you want. However, it is important to note, snow equipment is not cheap. For something like boots, it is recommended that you purchase your own. Even though people rent boots all the time, it is important to have comfortable feet and a good fit, and it could also prevent foot injuries down the road – or mountain. Goggles can easily be rented, but are also more affordable than most snow equipment and worth the investment. Another thing to invest in is a snow jacket and snow pants. It is important to know what your threshold for cold weather is going into your trip. If you are someone who easily gets cold, you have to pack pants and a jacket that will keep you warm, but not so warm that you end up sweating. Another option you have is to wear long underwear underneath, as another protective layer. If you need help booking your next skiing or snowboarding vacation, give us a call at (877) 254-4864.

5 Easy Ways To Save Big On Your Ski VacationEveryone loves a good deal, especially when it comes to skiing and snowboarding. Between the accommodations, lift tickets, and gear rentals, the costs of a slopeside vacation quickly add up. But with a little early planning, you can save big on this season’s ski trip. Visit lesser-known ski resorts. Resorts like Homewood Mountain Resort near the west shore of Lake Tahoe and Diamond Peak in Incline Village. These destinations offer incredible views and exceptional skiing for everyone from beginners to experts. An added bonus—both resorts often offer specials and equipment rentals and lift passes. Buy a lower mountain lift ticket. If you’re a new or occasional skier, consider purchasing a lower mountain lift ticket, which most resorts sell for half the price of a regular lift ticket or package with basic lessons. These discounted tickets give you access to just the beginner slopes, which is all you really need if you’re starting out. Attend a ski expo in your area. Thinking about buying your own gear? You’ll save hundreds of dollars over a lifetime of skiing, and you’ll enjoy the added comfort of wearing perfectly fitted boots. One of the best places to buy gear is at a ski and snowboard expo in the fall or early winter. Plan your trip for the shoulder seasons. Go early or late in the season and you’ll avoid the crowds and enjoy savings on your accommodations. Christmas and Presidents’ Day weekend are always popular no matter where you go, so avoid those times if you’re looking for a deal. Gear rentals are sometimes cheaper during the shoulder season, too. Stay in a timeshare rental. A timeshare rental is the way to go if you’re looking to save money. These spacious condos and studios typically cost the same as a standard hotel room, but they accommodate more people and give you the flexibility to cook your own meals. For a timeshare rental near your favorite ski destination, look no further than Tahoe Beach & Ski Club.... Read More
