Skiing in the morning, whitewater rafting in the afternoon, beach in the evening? That's just one possibility with all the outdoor activities available this Fourth of July weekend in Lake Tahoe. Here's what to know.
And temperatures at Palisades, where the Freedom Fest festival is being held, are expected to go into the 80s or beyond. Fashion could be a thing.
"Lots of times you'll see people out in their bathing suit ripping around or you know, just shorts and a t-shirt is perfectly fine, no gloves," said Lacey."This is one of the best river seasons that we've probably seen in the past 10 years," said Pauly Miltner of Tahoe Whitewater Tours. There was chatter about whitewater rafting being closed in the Tahoe region. That is true, but just for two rental companies close to the damn near Lake Tahoe where water is not being released. That's not true for three other companies like Tahoe Whitewater Tours. Those companies are open downstream on the Truckee where there are four other water sources; and open along other rivers.
"We're starting to book up trips but there are always slots available. We run seven days a week, we have five different rivers that we run," said Miltner.
