Weather and fuel conditions permitting, the North Lake Tahoe Fire Protection District anticipates pile burning beginning January 10th through the end of the month, in various locations throughout Incline Village, including the Lariat Circle area and near the Mountain Golf Course facilities.
Smoke resulting from the pile burns will affect the surrounding areas for approximately 48-72 hours. People that are smoke sensitive are advised to please stay inside and close their windows and doors as much as possible until the smoke dissipates.

We thank the community for your patience and understanding with the short-term smoke impacts, realizing that improving forest health and fire safety are the long-term benefits.

For further information, or to be added to the district’s smoke sensitive notification list, please call the Fire District at 775-831-0351, ext. 0 to speak with someone in person or visit us online.

PINE NUTS - Stepping Away From The Temporal Grid

Time, to my mind, is merely music, if we can only hear it. It occurs to me that our lives are not played out over time, but are played out over melodies and harmonies that compose a swaying samba for instance, that might mature into a beautiful symphony. A 32 year old has been alive for just over one billion seconds, but more significantly, perhaps that 32 year old has been waltzing through life in three quarter time, spreading joy at every turn.

When we first meet a person we should not be asking ourselves, “How old do you suppose they are?” We should be asking ourselves, “What sorts of songs do you suppose they might be singing?”

Newport Beach firm set to begin work at Tahoe Biltmore.
EKN Development Group looks to turn East Shore property into ‘marquee destination’.
Changes are on the horizon along Lake Tahoe’s East Shore.

Newport Beach-based real estate firm EKN Development Group has recently acquired the Tahoe Biltmore Lodge & Casino and Beesley’s Cottages, both located in Crystal Bay.

In the coming months work will begin to demolish buildings at both sites in order to develop the property into a “branded marquee destination for both locals and visitors to Lake Tahoe’s vibrant North Shore,” according to an Oct. 7 press release.

Incline Village-Crystal Bay Constable Office to be Abolished.
INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. – The first reading from the Washoe County Commissioners of the provision to abolish the office of the constable in Incline Village-Crystal Bay is scheduled at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 25 at the commissioner’s meeting.

“The commission can determine that this position is no longer needed, considering the increased Sheriff’s Office presence in Incline Village,” said Washoe County Media and Communications Manager Bethany Drysdale. “The constable offices in the townships of Gerlach, Reno, Sparks, Verdi, and Wadsworth were abolished in 1998.”

Now, it is recommended by the Board to approve the further abolishment of the Incline Village-Crystal Bay constable.

As small local business owners, we believe in giving back whenever we can. Another recipient of our charitable giving this year is Lake Tahoe Wildlife Care in South Lake Tahoe, which helps wildlife from all around the lake and surrounding areas. This is a 27-acre facility made possible by the generous donations of locals. Since opening in 1978, this facility, with paid staff and volunteers, has successfully cared for and released over 15,000 wild birds and animals. We thought that this was a worthy effort to get behind.

Jason’s Beachside Grille located in the heart of King's Beach, North Lake Tahoe, is a family-friendly American restaurant offering spectacular lake views on our scenic lakefront deck and grassy sandbar area.
