Accomodation and boot fitter recomendations for south lake tahoe
Hi,
I have a couple of months off work and a season pass for heavenly. I was going to spend most of the next couple of months in south lake tahoe (I am flying from the UK next week). I am planning to stay at Doug's Mellow Mountain Retreat, probally costing about 20 dollars a night. I was wondering if anyone could recomend any other options for this sort of money. I should have a car and am completely flexable. I will be on my own most of the time The other question is can anyone recomend a good boot fitter in that general area. I need a new pair of boots, and have pretty odd shaped feet. I would rather one south of the lake, but could drive to the north if they were worth it. Any other comments welcome, esp. if there is someone out there who fancies a ski buddy anytime over the next couple of months, perhaps to go off piste with. Thanks for any help, BTW, I do not check the reply address. Post here if you want to send a private message. |

I am not into skiing but S Lake Tahoe is closed to where I live and so I know that there are REI stores that you might want to locate. Go online and enter the zip code where you'll be at. I alos heard about stretching a particular area of the boot by taking the linign out. One store that does that that i know of is in the city of Davis: Ken Bikes and Skiis (530) 758-3223. I got this info from an REI. Any other comments welcome, esp. if there is someone out there who fancies a ski buddy anytime over the next couple of months, perhaps to go off piste with.

Find yahoo gorups in neighboring cities to Heavenly (including San Francisco Bay Area ) and you mgith find someone. |
