Submitted by paula on Thu, 12/19/2019 - 10:27pmSOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Plenty of permits to cut down Christmas trees in the Lake Tahoe Basin remain at both sales locations. Due to permits being sold out after just a week in the past, people were only allowed to buy one of the $10 permits per family this year.
The result is plenty of leftovers.
