State Snow Parks

Taylor Creek

Taylor creek is west of Highway 89, north of Camp Richardson. Make sure to check out their website to confirm availability.

When you set out on your sledding or tubing adventure, be sure to follow the 3 golden rules:

 

1. Follow Parking Laws

 

South Lake Tahoe California Highway Patrol have already issued 532 parking citations this winter since the first snowfall! Give them a rest (and avoid getting a ticket) by paying close attention to all traffic signs. In South Lake Tahoe there is no street parking. 

 

The cost of an illegal parking ticket can be up to $50 while a tow will cost you up to $300. There’s nothing worse than getting towed in the snow and left to foot the bill!

2. No Trespassing

 

Just because there’s snow everywhere, doesn’t mean there is sledding everywhere! You can avoid sledding in someone's backyard accidentally by sticking to designated sledding areas.

3. Keep Tahoe Blue

 

Lastly, help us protect Lake Tahoe for future generations. Wherever you go, always remember the golden rule of adventuring: “Pack it in and pack it out!” It is your responsibility to take care of the trash that you bring to a location. 

 

We hope you have a blast enjoying the winter wonderland that is Lake Tahoe!
