โ๏ธ Together, we achieved great things in 2024. โ๏ธ
We`re excited to build on these achievements and have big plans for 2025 and beyond. To realize those plans, we`ve set the ambitious goal of raising $250,000 for Tahoe trails between now and the end of December, and we need your support this giving season toย make it happen.
Head to the link in bio to find out more about how your donation dollars could help support TAMBA`s future projects and donate to our 2024 End-of-Year Giving Drive to give back to the trails you love.
You can also hear more about what we have in store for the future at the Fall Volunteer and Member Party on November 8 at Heavenly`s Cal Base Lodge. Check out the link in bio for more information and to register for tickets.

Goodnight Tools - A season ending poem as stash our last cache.
(Inspired by "Goodnight Moon" by Margaret Wise Brown)
In the quiet clearing, beneath the mountainโs glow,
Lie the trails and the tools, all row by row.
And in the workshop, snug and bright,
Are the tools that worked hard from dawn till night.
Goodnight tools and goodnight light,
Goodnight gloves, all worn out tight.
Goodnight shovels and goodnight picks,
Goodnight tampers that gave trails their fix.
Goodnight saw, goodnight rake,
Goodnight pulaski by the lake.
Goodnight to the wheelbarrow, heavy and wide,
And goodnight flagging tied by the side.
Goodnight to the builders, muddy and proud,
Goodnight to the mountain, tall and bowed.
Goodnight trails, winding with grace,
Goodnight TAMBA crew, and this sacred place.
Goodnight to the laughter, the sweat, and the cheer,
And goodnight to each rock placed carefully here.
Goodnight tools, weโll see you again,
When the snow melts, and itโs trail season, my friend.
What a great dig season it`s been! Thanks to all who`ve contributed! Join us at our volunteer and member party Nov. 8th at Heavenly Cal Lodge.

New Blog Post on the LTBMU Basin wide trails analysis! ๐
The forest has released their draft decision, and we are in the public objection period through Nov. 7th.
The forest service received 600 public comments last year, only those who previously submit a comment, may object.
Check out the link in our bio for the full post, and a special @caltopo map the TAMBA team put together that overlays the PDF maps from the plan to an interactive layer to learn more about proposed new trails and trails to be open to Class 1 eBikes.

We went out with a bang on the last public trail day of the year for Meeks Ridge Trail on Sat! We had 15 volunteers, enjoying amazing fall weather on the west shore. This motivated group made big progress through a steep, brushy rocky section of trail (with great views of the lake).
Really steep and challenging terrain! This will set us up nicely for an expected finish in 2025.
John from @olympicbike delivered sandwiches from Tahoe House Bakery, Thank you Olympic for your support! The lunch delivery was great. We stopped work and pulled everyone into the shade. Lots of new friends and new community connections were made.
Stay tuned for more opportunities to build trail and community. It`s a great time to be a mountain biker!
