Tahoe recreation, resort and nonprofit leaders to talk sustainable mountain travel on Clubhouse

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Despite Tahoe’s reputation as one of our nation’s natural treasures – which sees four times the annual visitation of Yellowstone – Lake Tahoe is not a national park. So it lacks the consistent funding and strict protections needed to manage human impacts on the environment, including litter, tailpipe emissions, and habitat degradation. On the flip side, the Basin is an outdoor playground accessible to millions. To preserve Tahoe’s natural splendor and protect the region’s economic vitality, organizations, businesses, and agencies are building a sustainable recreation model based on “shared stewardship” with travelers.

WHAT: “New Heights in Sustainable Mountain Travel” is a live event available through the Clubhouse app. Panelists representing the worlds of lodging, recreation, journalism and environmental conservation will share ideas for an environmentally responsible travel model. Like a podcast only live, this Clubhouse event brings insightful conversation directly to your phone. Tune in to learn what Tahoe’s premier private and nonprofit organizations are doing to Keep Tahoe Blue.

WHO: Panelists include:

Jesse Patterson – CSO, League to Save Lake Tahoe/Keep Tahoe Blue
Tom Fortune – VP and GM, Heavenly Mountain Resort
Corinna Osborne – GM, Edgewood Tahoe Resort
Alexandra Talty – Journalist, Forbes
