President's Message

Hello Orlando Ski and Adventure Travel Club members! 

Our first September 10th-12th Lake Louisa Cabin Weekend in Clermont was a Wonderful Weekend with 70+ ski club members. More than 20 people attending this event were new club members and have yet to travel with us but they attended the best welcome event ever! Three cabins won awards:

Best Food Item in the Potluck: Carne Sliders with “The Sauce”

Best Cabin Theme: College Football Theme

…although a close 2nd Place was The Murder Cabin, LOL!

Best Surprise of the Weekend: Glow Dance Party hosted by some new Ladies in the club

            …yes, black lights illuminating fluorescent balloons being kicked around on the dance floor following the Cabin Pub Crawl was a blast!

We plan to hold this event again next Fall so be sure to sign up for it quickly once it’s out there and available as space will be limited again.

Thank you to all of the club members who contributed to the planning and execution of this super event – Amy McClurg, Devin Coffy, Robin Beckman, Jackie Warren, Kenny Krumins, Gunther Zurstadt, Kathryn Hardage, Steve McClurg, David Miller, and Pat Murray.

Fall is here and I am Loving this Fall weather! We’re now able to start imagining beautiful Snow Falls and Fresh Mountain Air just around the corner 😊

I hope all of you have your plans in place to play in the Snow this Year!

Steve Clark, OSTC President

Trip Highlight: Heavenly!

Heavenly Ski Resort is one of contrasts. On one hand you can ski Heavenly Lake Tahoe for the glorious tree skiing amongst huge ancient pines. On the other hand there’s the casinos, gambling and live shows. Sunny for days on end, then dumping down snow... for days on end. Ski in Nevada one run, and then go skiing in California the next. Views of beautiful Lake Tahoe, snowy mountains and forests on one side, whilst there are views of arid desert on the other. Heavenly Lake Tahoe is a real surprise package. 

Ski Heavenly

  • Heavenly Ski Resort offers spectacular views across Lake Tahoe, probably on par if not a little better than Homewood and Diamond Peak Ski Resort.
  • Heavenly Lake Tahoe offers awesome cruising for intermediates. 
  • The wide-open tree skiing is great for strong intermediates to advanced riders when the snow is on. 
  • Heavenly has lots of fast lifts. 
  • The adjacent South Lake Tahoe and Stateline are a huge pro with an abundance of après ski fun at the casinos, restaurants, bars, shops, and on the lake. 

Heavenly Ski and Snowboard Terrain

Heavenly ski resort is massive. There are 4,800 acres (1,942 hectares) of Heavenly ski and snowboard terrain, 97+ trails, and 3,500 feet (1,067 metres) of vertical to play with. The Heavenly ski area is the largest of the California ski resorts.

Heavenly Resort has a mix of terrain for all abilities, but in particular it’s an intermediates' paradise and a mecca for advanced tree skiing with the odd steep thrown in for good measure.
