What we’re about
***** PLEASE ADHERE TO ALL CURRENT CA AND NV STATE COVID-19 TRAVEL, GATHERINGS AND STAY-AT-HOME RESTRICTIONS *****
This group is for skiers and snowboarders of all ability levels to meet others who love to ski or ride. Our common interest is a passion for sking or boarding and our goal is simple… to get out on the snow and have FUN!
During the season we'll hold monthly meetings (mixers/happy hours), organize day & weekend trips, car-pool, etc. (and occasionally, a few trips out of the area; like Colorado, Whistler, etc). We'llalso partner with other ski clubs or Meetup groups for combined activities. Anyone who wants to assist with organizing an event or get-togethers at a particular area or resort is welcome to become an Assistant Organizer; just ping Clint. Ideally, we'll have Organizers for each Reno, North Shore, South Shore, West Shore & possibly Carson/Minden/Gardnerville.
Everyone is welcome; singles, couples, families; all ages; whether new to the area or a long-term Reno/Tahoe resident. Sign-up, watch for the meetup postings & get ready for another GREAT snow season in Tahoe with a bunch of new friends on the mountain!!
BTW, the main photo posted is Moglmasher... on a "PowderBumps" day on Gunbarrel. Two thumbs up!

# Join Saveur the Journey for a Strong Intermediate/Advanced level Southern Hemisphere Skiing and Boarding trip to the Mendoza Province of Argentina in August 2025. Escape the hot summer stateside and travel across the equator to chase an endless winter with this small-group South American ski trip to the high-altitude resort of Las Leñas in the Andes. With a base at 7,350 ft (2240m) and the lifts topping out at 11,250ft (3430m), Las Leñas provides almost 4ooo ft of vertical and is a massive resort, with more total skiable terrain than Whistler, Canada. Las Leñas has a good mix of difficulty levels, from great intermediate runs with superb views, all the way to extreme steeps, bowls, and couloirs. Due to its high altitude, the quality of the powder up high is considered some of the best in South America. The resort is geographically remote (about four-and-half hours drive from Mendoza city) so it takes some work to get there, but the payoff is a stunning location with potentially limited competition for the more advanced powder lines.
A local Argentinian guide and ski instructor will get you to the front of the lift lines and show you the best powder stashes and where to experience superb Argentinian wines, pampas beef, chocolate, and culture.
