Lake Tahoe Events, Lake Tahoe California

December 23, 2007 - This morning at 9:30 a.m. Heavenly opened the new Olympic Express high-speed quad to the public. A very exciting moment for Heavenly and our guests, Olympic’s debut was just in time for the holidays. With a ride time of only three-and-a-half minutes people were all smiles as they came down Olympic Downhill run after the first rides on the new chairlift. Olympic Express is 3,533 feet long with 866 feet of vertical rise and travels at 1,000 feet per minute. My first ride was so fast I didn’t even have enough time to ask the other riders where they were from; on the old lift I would’ve been able to hear their entire life story! J Heavenly now has 20 lifts open with skiing and riding on 42 trails, by far the most open terrain in Tahoe. I hope everyone plans trips to Heavenly this season to experience our new Olympic Express lift, as well as the three new trails is accesses
