The altitude and rugged terrain add an adventurous edge, requiring good hydration and some stamina. Staff members are known for their friendly, safety-oriented attitude, elevating the experience and ensuring fun without compromise.

Incline Village’s natural environment is characterized by its lush forests and rocky granite formations surrounding Lake Tahoe, one of the deepest and clearest alpine lakes in North America. This setting enhances the adventure’s appeal, combining vigorous physical activity with stunning scenic views.
