Helicopter rides in Tahoe.

Friday, December 18th, 2009

For less than $50 you can see Tahoe from a helicopter with HeliTahoe. Give the owner, Claudio, a call at [530] 544.2211 and tell him we sent you to receive 10% off.

From a birds eye view, some of what you will see is Emerald Bay, Mt Tallac, Desolation Wilderness and the deep blue and green colors of Lake Tahoe.

You can do more than a scenic ride, why not get married up there? Brings a whole new meaning to the “mile high club”…

If you have a club, group or corporate outing bring them all up. HeliTahoe has several helicopters and can accommodate your crew. Plus with your headset you’ll be able to talk to your friends in the other helicopters as if they are sitting next to you.

I don’t know about you, but when I get to the Reno Airport, although the drive is beautiful, I can’t wait to get to Tahoe. So why not take a helicopter? There will be enough room for five of you. It works out to about $125 a person each way; a lot less than a taxi. And way cooler.

So call Claudio at [530] 544.2211 or visit the HeliTahoe website http://www.helitahoe.com/. Don’t forget to mention 968 Park Hotel to get your discount!

Fall Fun in Tahoe with SoarNV Glider Ride.

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

A glider ride is an amazing way to see Tahoe. It starts with SoaringNV in Minden, NV, located about 25 minutes from 968 Park Hotel. Climb into the glider and feel the rush of taking off toward the Sierra Nevada Mountains as you are pulled bu the tow plane. The pilot will point out Genoa, Nevada’s first town. Heavenly Ski Resort and Carson City. Highlights of gold aspen accent the valley’s all over the mountains. You will crest the mountains and there is big blue Lake Tahoe! I’ve seen Lake Tahoe from the water, the beach, the mountains, the ski resorts and although they are all amazing, but nothing beats the view from the glider.

I could see every trail at Heavenly and was picking out my ski lines for this winter! We could see 968 Park Hotel, Emerald Bay, Falling leaf Lake, Mt. Tallac and the Caribbean like blue colors of the lake.

We were released from the tow plane and floated over the mountains for another 20 minutes. On our way back we asked for the “eRide”… The glider pilot drove us down hard and it felt like we were weightless. Then a hard up turn. You could feel the G-Force pulling you down into your seat. Then the finally earth, sky, earth… yup a full back flip. Let em tell you, after that any amusement park ride is going to just seem silly.

Unfortunately it was time to land. We landed smoother than any commercial jet I’ve ever been on. Of course lots of pictures and believe it or not, my lunch stayed put the whole time!

I’m convinced that when you come to Tahoe, you should go on a glider ride first. It helps you get oriented, appreciate the enormity of the lake and it can be a relaxing or exhilarating, you get to decide. Plus it cost about the same as a day of skiing for two and way less then a night of gambling…

Visit www.soaringNV.com and use promo code “968Park” and you will get $20 off of your flight.

968 Park Hotel makes our Television Debut

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

Todd Stanley, Emmy award winning producer of the Discovery Channel’s “Deadliest Catch” stopped by with the camera crew to make 968 Park Hotel a subject for his new travel show. Focusing on the culture and life of the Sierra and Foothills, his newest project “Experience El Dorado” will prove to have the same dynamic production as the “Deadliest Catch”.
 
You might recognize the show’s host Cory Tapia as the announcer at the 1996 and 2000 Olympics or as the stadium voice for the San Francisco 49ers and Oakland Raiders. He was here with the “Deadliest Catch” camera team for a full two days of filming the episode.
 
The day before the Red Carpet TV premier, Cory, Todd and Phil Harris, captain of the Cornelia Marie stopped by for an evening of R & R at 968 Park Hotel and fun at the casinos that evening. While playing Black Jack at Harvey’s casino our dealer asked me about the hotel. I said, “I think its pretty good.” Captain Phil interrupted adding, “No, it’s really nice.”
Watch the full episode by visiting, www.experienceeldorado.com.
