Palisades Tahoe, formerly known as Squaw Valley & Alpine Meadows, is currently facing a critical situation following an avalanche that occurred on the morning of January 10th. The incident took place specifically above the GS gully area of KT-22 on the Palisades side of the mountain.

Unofficial reports from employees indicate that there are multiple people missing in the GS chute area. The severity of the situation is underscored by reports of "multiple burials on GS bowl," leading to the closure of both mountains for safety reasons.

SAND HARBOR, Nev. - The recent inclusion of Lake Tahoe in a prominent international travel guide's list of places to avoid due to the detrimental environmental impact of excessive tourism has left local tourism officials taken aback. The iconic lake, which lies on the border between California and Nevada, has seen a surge in visitors and new permanent residents amid the COVID-19 pandemic, reigniting longstanding concerns about overcrowding. The inclusion of Lake Tahoe in "Fodor’s No List 2023" may serve as a much-needed alarm bell, signaling the need for change.
