'There are worse places to be stuck.'
On her way up, Horton recalled a fair bit of dangerous driving due to how seemingly ill-prepared some out-of-towners were for the trip. She noted that during her six-hour trip from San Rafael to Incline Village, she was delayed for an hour — twice — waiting at the chain checkpoint.
“On the sides of the road, especially at the chain checkpoint, there are a lot of drivers that are not prepared,” she said. “They're driving their Priuses or driving their Teslas, they don't have chains and they're still driving the same speeds that you would if the roads weren't covered in snow and ice. It's really scary.”
Horton also recalled lending another traveler, driving what she called a “non-SUV,” a shovel — noting how unprepared this person seemed for this snowstorm. “He wasn't wasn't wearing proper snow attire, and he looked really shell-shocked,” she said. Demand for room and board in Tahoe also appears to be high. A call made by SFGATE to Harrah’s Lake Tahoe was put on hold for 15 minutes before it was seemingly hung up. As of Monday afternoon, only a few dozen last-minute properties are available for Monday and Tuesday on Airbnb. Most major ski resorts, including Heavenly and Sierra-at-Tahoe, are also closed.
