It's not uncommon for the drive to and from Lake Tahoe to take a LONG time in the Winter, depending on the snowfall. When driving there, be sure to bring food, drinks and blankets for the drive, in case you have to wait out road closures in a blizzard. On New Year's Even, instead of the usual 3-1/2 hour drive that we usually have from our home to South Lake Tahoe, our drive took 9 hours 20 minutes!! Highway 50 was closed until 1:20pm for avalance control, which had thousands of people stuck in line, waiting for the roads to clear. Even when Highway 50 reopened, it took 6-1/2 hours for us to get up and over Echo Summit and to get to our hotel, simply because of the number of people wanting to get through.

It seems that Lake Tahoe looks even more spectacular in winter than it does in summer. Great photos and tips! | ATXtraveler Sat Sep 17, 2005 01:10 UTC
