Unfortunately, once again we find ourselves in the unenviable position of recommending that visitors NOT come to the lake. The harsh reality is that you really wouldn't enjoy the time here ... it seems as if we're all walking around on Mars with persistently high AQI ratings.

As you can imagine this is particularly difficult to deal with on a mental and emotional level, but then we think about those who are much less well off than we are. Our hearts go out to those who have lost homes in this fire throughout the South Lake Tahoe. Worse, this battle is nowhere near won. Currently, the Caldor Fire stands at only 25% contained and we'll likely be dealing with smoke for many weeks to come.

So ... unfortunately we will miss many of you during the traditional Labor Day Clearance Sale this weekend. This fire hits at a tough time for us, as we rely on this clearance weekend to get apparel and equipment in your hands at large discounts while making room for the incoming winter inventory. More than anything, however, we want to stoke you out for that last push of summer on any upcoming adventures!

Having said that, we will have deep discounts on all things summer if you live in the area or happen to be here.... or want to shop online. We'd love to see you, of course, but are chalking this one (again...) up to the "great pause button" of life during the last 18 months.

Specifics include:

$50-$75 Clearance Shoe Sale
40-70% Off Select Summer Apparel and Footwear
20-50% Off Select Backcountry Equipment

If you aren't comfortable with attending the sale in person, please consider shopping on our website and/or call us to process your sales over the phone. You won't find the deep discounts on apparel online but you will find it on footwear and ski equipment! Lastly, there are many items that are discounted in the shop but aren’t allowed to be on sale online due to pricing agreements… so call us to double check!

Please note that all sales on discounted items are final.

New shop truckers have dropped! What better way to take your mind off the smoke than a fresh new lid?

Head over to our website and grab one while supplies last… or better yet stop into the shop! We’re bored to death and would love to see you.

It is muggy and smokey in Tahoe ... so what better time to think about ripping pow turns!

Dreamtime is the best (and cheapest) time of year to purchase @dpsskis ! During this short window, prices on our inline DPS 2021/22 and Special Edition skis are temporarily reduced by $200!

"Summer is a skier’s season to dream.” Those are the words that gave birth to Dreamtime over a decade ago and they remain true today. It’s a time for dedicated skiers around the globe to get lost in heat-induced daydreams of cold smoke, build your perfect quiver and visualize how your body and equipment will work in unison when the snow begins to fall again. Summer is also a time when the DPS product and manufacturing teams are hard at work bringing to life innovative dream projects while tirelessly crafting skis for the coming season.

Dreamtime 2021 marks the introduction of the new Pagoda construction and event-exclusive Special Edition Pagoda Tour skis. Don't wait .... call us today!

For 15 years, the Alpenglow Sports Winter Speaker Series has been an eagerly anticipated winter tradition for North Lake Tahoe and Truckee’s adventure community.

To date, the event has raised over $750,000 for local North Tahoe and Truckee non-profit organizations. It is our intention to surpass the $1 million dollar mark this season, our 16th year of making our community a better place, while inspiring one of the most compelling forums for adventure storytelling in the United States.

Today, we are excited to announce a new non-profit application process AND a new selection committee for the upcoming 2021-22 season. As beneficiaries of the 16th annual Winter Speaker Series, two lucky winners will receive $75,000-100,000+ of direct financial support from the community.

Applications will be accepted through July 31st, from which 5 organizations will be chosen for consideration. These 5 groups will then present to our newly created selection committee and two luck winners chosen and announced by the end of September.

Please email info@alpenglowsports.com for the application and note that your organization must be a certified 501c3 in order to participate. Here's to making our community the best place possible to live, work and play.
