I got about 6" at lake level. Alot of the resorts got over a foot. Be prepared to get stuck here if your coming up for New Years. It looks like we are going to get hammered with storms.

Awesome!

(Not that we have snow finally, or anything like that... but the fact that we have live, frequent snow reports by an Audi junkie like ourselves!

SBG,

Can you suggest a cool lil cozy Ski Lodge in the area? Something like Strawberry Lodge . . . I've been going there for years, but now my GF doesn't want to go there with me cause she saw some old pix of me and my ex together there from a long time back. [:(]

North west side of Tahoe right by the lake

I like Sorensons the best but it is pretty secluded.
