Foot of New Snow Allows Lake Tahoe Businesses to Get Back to Normal

Mother Nature dropped enough snow in the Lake Tahoe basin to allow many winter based operations to get back to business.

Borges Sleigh Rides hadn't been able to run their horse drawn sleigh rides over snow covered meadows since Christmas. On Friday, their staff was keeping busy while enjoying being on the snow again as the sun peaked from behind clouds.

Operations had shifted over to running carriage rides at the Lake Tahoe Resort Hotel. Those will continue, weather permitting, along with the sleigh rides.

The weekend is shaping up to be a good one for those catering to the ski & snowboard crowd. Cold temperatures will keep the snow in tact, with lows in single digits and highs just above freezing.
