Wanna see Tahoe from a completely different perspective that you’ve never been able to access? Wanna see exactly how much snow there is or isn’t in Tahoe? This is your chance.

Points North Heli owner/operator/guide Kevin Quinn has been out and about in his little Cessna checking out how Tahoe is looking snow-wise. He gave Squaw and Alpine a good look over as well as a few secret spots that most have never laid eyes on.

All of these photos were taken on January 28th, 2012 and are Kevin’s. Thanks for letting us use these Kevin.

Photos go from Squaw Valley to Alpine Meadows to the Mystery Spots.
