TAHOE 22/23 -THE YEAR OF THE (t)RAM
Stoke is a vibe that we all share on an energetic level. But for real, let's give this salad a toss. Hope you're a good catcher. Winter is coming. Remember to share lots of reverse psychology, anti-jinx, and straight up disinfo. There's good skiing in Tahoe -sometimes- but I won't tell you where. Use the stoke here to drive you out there. Develop your local knowledge, which runs deep like all indigenous memory. Resist corporations trying to colonize and scrape our culture to offer up as a product. We do this for each other. If you want someone to tell you where the stashes are and all the beta to get there, make friends, respect local customs, and show gratitude for the generosity. You could also be super cool by opposing reckless development, volunteering to build recreation infrastructure, and giving actual money to groups that organize to affect positive change in all these areas. (There's a suggested list below). We will cover all of these in this thread, but above all, share stoke. Remind everbuddy why we're here and what we are working to create/preserve. Let's go!

Should have included high end coffee table photo guidebook authors on the list of those looking to commodify local knowledge and treasured resources. [emoji849]
