The Tahoe Area Mountain Biking Association (TAMBA) is a volunteer-driven nonprofit organization that builds, maintains, and advocates for multi-use trails in Tahoe while providing education to all trail users and hosting fun community events. TAMBA works in partnership with land managers such as the U.S. Forest Service, Nevada State Parks, California State Parks, and the City of South Lake Tahoe.
TAMBA improves and builds sustainable multi-use trails on public lands and helps maintain more than 100 miles of trail per year. This project serves as a place to report all of TAMBAs annual trail building information as it pertains to the Environmental Improvement Program.

New trail miles: Meeks Ridge, Road 73 bypass, Lower Kingsbury Stinger, and Tunnel Creek reroute. Rebuilt trails that were negatively impacted by Tahoe’s historic winter and performed annual maintenance on existing multi-use trails to keep them open and safe for all. Improvements included rebuilding and hardening trail tread, upgrading and adding drainages to eroded trails, widening the trail corridor to enhance user experience and sightlines, and reshaping and repairing jumps and rock features that were negatively impacted by the Caldor Fire. TAMBA engaged with the community, offering valuable education on trail etiquette through our online and in person presence. This year, our commitment to advocacy also involved 200+ hours of analyzing and providing feedback on the Basin Wide Trails Analysis project. (from TAMBA's annual report) |
