Fishing Report - Jan. 18
CAPLES LAKE, CALIF.: Dave Kirby of the Woodfords General Store (530 694-2930) said there is good ice fishing. The ice is about 18 inches thick, more than enough for ice fishing. Some limits were caught by the dam nearest Kirkwood. Ice fishermen were catching fish by jigging with worms. Doug Busey of Douglas County reported he tried to fish over the weekend, but got blown off by a fierce wind.

River Dance
Slip into the skirt, put your nose plugs on and get ready to brace yourself. It's time to go river dancing. The heat waves of summer may be closing out, but for whitewater kayak enthusiasts, plenty of mountain surfing remains and will remain almost year-round.

Laser sailing is fast, fun and affordable
Sailing is often associated with fancy yacht clubs, dapper clothes and half-million dollar boats. But Laser sailors want people to know a there's a cheaper, more boisterous aspect to the sport.

Tahoe Ski

Donner Summit, CA – Like a fine wine, the rich flavor of Sugar Bowl just continues to improve with age. Refreshing, good natured customer service has always been the main ingredient at Sugar Bowl, but the recent improvements have now made the resort more than appetizing. The four express quads accessing the entire mountain will certainly give you your fill of the Bowl’s mouth-watering terrain. And their second entrance at Mt. Judah with direct access to beginner and intermediate fare ensures that there is something on the menu for everyone. Add a grand base lodge, extensive snowmaking upgrades, a new Super Pipe and a smorgasbord of other mountain improvements to the recipe and you too will appreciate the sweet taste of Sugar Bowl.

Everyone knows that Sugar Bowl has the friendliest staff around and that is what puts them a cut above. The mood starts at the top with President and CEO, Rob Kautz, who proclaims, “our people love the mountain and love what they’re doing and that’s the key to making Sugar Bowl fun.” Guests take notice immediately. It is more than just happy greetings and smiles that you’ll observe, Sugar Bowl intrinsically exudes a warmth that everyone appreciates. The genuine, friendly atmosphere is like a secret ingredient that you can’t quite make out, but somehow deep down, you know that’s what makes Sugar Bowl so appetizing. Maybe Sugar Bowl’s friendliness and warmth started with Walt Disney, one of the original founders 63 years ago, or possibly it is just the crisp thin, mountain air high atop Donner Summit, but without a doubt people always feel welcome and they are glad they came back to taste it again for the first time.
