There are so many things to love about Tahoe, and a few that are not so loveable.  Learn more about the things that bring us Bliss and the stuff that we could do without.

One of my favorite views is that of the sky in Tahoe.  The color changes daily.  I love it on a crisp Winter day when the tree branches are tufted in white.  During the Spring the flowering trees can make the blue seem even deeper.  In the Summertime the sky sometimes appears tuquoise.  Daily, hourly, even by the minute, the color of the sky can change.

A noticeable effect of the Covid-19 pandemic was a reduction in pollutants due to decreased travel.  In Tahoe, it wasn't the air pollution that we noticed had decreased, but rather, how few vehicles were on the road and how quiet our town had become.

As the pandemic continued to limit activities in other places our town became more and more inundated with visitors in need of a mountain escape.  The traffic increased and, soon, the roads were as packed as they become on Independence Day Weekends.  Before you travel to Tahoe to get yourself a view of our beautiful blue skies take a moment to learn about how to travel safely to and around the basin.

​The Dangers of Parking for Snow Play

A fresh snowfall leaves everything blanketed in white.  It is one of the most quiet times to be outdoors.  Walks in the woods, cross country skiing, backcountry tours, and resort adventures are "in."  The forest colors and smells are a little different.  The beaches have a different feel to them.  It can seem like there is endless space for play.  It's just magical.

Now, I have only lived in Tahoe for a dozen or so years, but I have never seen what I have seen this Winter before.  The meadow near my home is a lovely place to enjoy a walk or snow play.  There is a small parking lot nearby that provides all you need including bathrooms and baggies for dog poop.  Instead of accessing these amenities visitors parked on highway shoulder to access the meadow and even created fires which could have easily gotten out of control and put our homes at risk.  Trash from broken sleds, packaging and food was picked up by the pounds.

It's important to look for signage before stopping to take photos, a walk, or play in the snow.  If there isn't a parking lot or sign that indicates you can park, don't do it.  If you don't see a fire pit you probably shouldn't have one.  If there aren't trash cans available be prepared to carry out that which you brought with you.  Look for and read the signs posted.  They are there to help you know how to respect and protect the area.

Living in Tahoe is not easy.  You have to earn the lifestyle.  We pick and choose our days off, where we play, what we do, and who we do it with.  Yes, we have secret stashes and hidden spots.  Sometimes we choose not to go to a place we love because it's better to allow those who can't always get to it to enjoy it.  Timing is everything.  We know exactly where to be, when, so we can experience Bliss.

Leave no trace is an important practice.  Like staying within the ropes at a ski resort or putting away your toys at home; leaving no trace is a way of demonstrating integrity.  Remember those big blue skies and fields of fluffy snow?  You can be the one who let's everyone else enjoy them when you leave no trace. 

It's simple:
-Carry out your stuff (and whatever else you find that doesn't belong)
-Leave stones, sticks, logs, etc. where they are (unless they are dangerous)
-Leave the snow as it was before you arrived
-Clean up after your pet

Bliss can be shared among all of us if we are all considerate of each other wherever we are.  Whether you are enjoying the views, playing in the snow, exploring a new spot, or spending time in your favorite place consider how your behavior could be effecting others.  Can you make the change to have a positive effect?

If you're seeking more information about planning a trip to Tahoe we're here to help.  From experiences to resources and classes to guides our intention is to shared Bliss with you.

Travel might not be in the plans, or the budget, but that doesn't mean you can't have Tahoe while staying home.  Learn more about our virtual experiences.

Many of us are working from home.  With services like Slack, Zoom and Teams making it easy to do our work and connect virtually meetings, training, and team building is changing.

Traveling is stressful.  The energy, cost, time, and frustration involved in trying to get somewhere can deplete your enthusiasm about where you were headed.  Virtual experiences eliminate travel time allowing you to enjoy experiences from home.  You can even spend time with friends or family who live internationally without the hefty price of an airline ticket.

Set up your lawn chair or hammock and get ready for guided meditation practices, experiential workshops, and engaging activities.  You can practice Yoga along with our guides from your living room, backyard or deck.  We'll create a list of materials you'll need to get creative and even cook along with our providers.

If you're not feeling quite your self, but you still want to join in the fun, a virtual experience is a great way to include everyone with reduced risk.  Virtual experiences can also be recorded and shared later.  Those who are unable to attend in person can watch at a later time.

Tahoe's weather is fairly predictable.  From the winds to rain, the sun and snow, we usually know what is going to happen today, tomorrow and even three days in advance.  This makes Tahoe a great place to visit when you need a getaway.  We can plan, well in advance, the activities that will help you to get out of the hustle and help you reset.

Pack your puffy coat, a cute beanie and your mittens.  You won't need much more for your Tahoe Bliss Retreat.  Rarely do the Winter temperatures in Tahoe drop below 20* and even when they do, the air is so crisp that you don't get very cold.  

You'll warm up easily while we snowshoe, hike or cross country ski.  If you want to adventure onto the resort or are more of a cozy fireside type, we'll be sure to schedule based upon you and your group's requests.

Every season is magical.  The colors of Winter are some of the best.  When the deep green and brown trees are coated in clean white snow, the lake is as calm as glass and the sky the brightest blue you've ever seen, it can be mesmerizing.  

Allow us to guide you out onto the beaches and mountains surrounding the lake.  Let's take some photos and enjoy the views.  We can even wander up to the North Shore and perch atop Chickadee Ridge for a bit.

Let's sit fireside and enjoy a glass of wine or enjoy a meal with lake views.  We can celebrate a milestone with champagne and cheese or crawl from club to club to celebrate your bestie's upcoming nuptuals.  

Tahoe's mild Winter weather rarely keeps us indoors.  You'll notice that those of us who live here adventure throughout the year.  No need to be rugged to explore our playground.  We'll create adventures that encourage you to explore while keeping you within a close range to your comfort zone.
