OK Tahoe where to go ???

[Guest]

I am up here in Tahoe for the next few days with kite and snowboard. Where do I have to go to catch some nice free open space with enough snow? The wind already picked up and more snow is on the way but I have no idea where I can unwrap my thingy.

Please advice, and good winds, Knyfe

Knyfe, search within the Snowkiting section, there's a lot of info there on where to go that was posted last year. Put your computer to work, find the info and get some wind!

Happy Holidays,
Ollie
