I don't believe there are free reservations. The "mix of free and paid reserve-in-advance parking for all guests" should actually read "mix of free (afternoon) and paid reserve-in-advance parking for all guests". They stated as much below in the FAQ
If I have an Ikon Pass, will I need to pay or make a reservation on peak weekends and holidays?
Yes, on Saturdays, Sundays, and select holiday periods, everyone will be required to have a paid reservation, regardless of what type of pass (or other product) you have.powdork.com - new and improved, with 20% more dork.

I don't believe there are free reservations. It's just a bit of slick (or poor) writing by the lawyers.

If I wasn’t cynical, I might even think they wrote so unclearly to reduce the chances of a timely lawsuit challenging the bait and switch terms

AM was pretty solid F/S/S, except for the aggro OV crowd and toolrists who showed up Saturday en masse and were all pushy and entitled in the Summit lift line.
Not to mention that many of the folks being jerks in the lift lines were also skiing insanely recklessly.
From a sociological and anthropological angle, it’s really interesting to note the difference between AM locals and the OV crowd…
Once we found some less traveled spots, things were cool, but damn the chuckleheads and bros-who-thought-they-were-pros-but-were-really-back-seat-Brandons were hella en fuego.
Today was a bit mellower and pretty much every run we skied was just me and my 4 compadres.
The snow was already kinda sticky at 8 am, but it stayed consistent and we managed to schuss until close to noon. There are still plenty of fun lines to be had, but also quite a bit of them are turning into pachinko-esque obstacle courses (which are hella fun as long as you don’t mind pinging off a submerged rock or two…)
Free parking was a bonus…

TAHOE 22/23 -THE YEAR OF THE (t)RAM
I’m hoping they got it out of their system and into their braggy insta feeds and don’t need to go anymore to generate more spew about late season turns. That’s my hope
Guess I’ll try to go next weekend to start cost averaging the parking fees. 🤬. I assume some dentist lawyer is getting a lawsuit ready to at least make them squirm paying a bunch of 700/HR billing rates. Somebody please bring back Zombie Alex Cushing. Talk about Devil you know ffs
Mandrewehays insta story is spot on regarding parking

zif they were truly interested in controling weekend traffic on 89 they could simply require reservations to ski or at least to ski before noon. Of course that would mean the loss of the parking revenue and potential day ticket sales. Or they could make a major contribution to a bus lane on 89.

Odd, I skied Friday and mentioned that to my local pal. So much anger for nothing.

So.... What spots around Tahoe are still skiing good? Preferably closer to south shore.
Preferably not too crazy on the approach. Need not be gnar.

Say you live near Tahoe House in Tahoe City and want to check your mail. Fuck you. Don't even try. Complete standstill from the Wye.

I think it's a reference to the traffic, not the post office. Everyone loves postal workers.
"Holy Cow!" someone exclaimed from the back of the stationwagon.
