Alpenglow Winter Speaker Series: Dave Nettle
The Alpenglow Sports Winter Speaker Series is an eagerly anticipated winter tradition for North Tahoe’s adventure community. With over 4,000 attendees annually, the 16-year-old event has become one of the premier North American forums for adventure storytelling. For the 2021-22 season, each show will be presented in-person AND online in a virtual capacity.
As co-founder of the Winter Speaker Series, Dave Nettle has been cultivating mountain community in North Lake Tahoe through his compelling tales of adventure for well over thirty years. Filled with his signature humor, his show “Big Fun in Little Switzerland,” will take us on his adventures of climbing classic long rock routes and ski touring the Pika Glacier, a spectacular land of rock and ice, surrounded by dramatic alpine peaks and rock spires, inspiring the name “Little Switzerland.” For decades, the glacier has been sought after by climbers and skiers for its remote feel while just a short ski plane flight from the town of Talkeetna.
