X3+wife+me+S. Lake Tahoe=PICS!!
So this past weekend, we took a trip to the snow. There wasn't too much snow, but it was just enough. We got there Friday night after horrific traffic from the Bay all the way to Placerville (foothills of the mountains). We planned to go skiing on Saturday, but there was a nice storm that kept us off the slopes. There were plenty of other people up there, but I've never been skiing before, and I didn't want my first time to be in 50mph winds with rain and snow in my face.
Our X3 got really, REALLY dirty. The only part of the rear window that I could see through was where the wiper blade hits. You might notice my tailpipes in the pics below, but you won't notice that they are actually chrome tips
Most of these pics are on HWY 89 which goes up the west side of the lake. The last pic is me and my wife, Brandie.
So anyways, enjoy!

Gorgeous pics! I've been up there in the summer and it's so beautiful. As a matter of fact, I climbed on that island in the 5th picture. It has the remnants of an old cottage/room that was used as a tea house.

How was the skiing?

I didn't ski because of the weather. But I think I'll go back before the season is over. I did get a chance to sled and it was super fun.

Great pics.

Wow, that scenery is breathtaking.

I trust your X3 handled the snow satisfactorily?

Smart move on deferring your first attempt at skiing until the conditions are a bit more cooperative. Makes for a much more enjoyable experience.

Thanks for posting.
