HOW THIS AVALANCHE AWARENESS GUIDE CONNECTS TO TAHOE REAL ESTATE
Winter is when people remember why they bought Tahoe in the first place, and also when they notice the details that matter, plowing, heat, roof lines, driveway pitch, and how easy it is to actually use the home on a storm week. If you are thinking about buying or selling this season, these are the same real world factors I help clients plan around.
WRAPPING IT UP
If Tahoe keeps this Januburied pace, these five picks cover the full winter spread, get smarter with avalanche skills, grab a snowcat powder day, lock in a film night and afterparty, catch a real dance floor show, and keep it family friendly with mindful mountain safety at Donner. If you want me to keep you posted on what’s actually worth doing each month, or you want a Tahoe real estate game plan that fits how you really spend your winters up here, reach me anytime at https://KennyKnowsTahoe.com
