Grant Korgan defied the odds & became the first spinal cord injury athlete to literally "push" himself to the geographic South Pole.

Exciting news!! We've been waiting for this for years. TST is looking forward to providing private ground transportation once they land on Tahoe. http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2017/05/19/seaplanes-begin-carrying-passengers-between-sausalito-and-lake-tahoe/

Forget the long drive up I-80, seaplanes are now carrying passengers between the Bay Area and Lake Tahoe.

On Inauguration Day, this Friday 1/20/17, TST LLC will donate $1000.00 to the 501.c3 charity we feel will best counter the president-elect's blatant disregard for the environment. We welcome other likeminded businesses to match us. If you have a suggestion of the best recipient of this donation please comment (respectfully) below with your reason(s) why. And if you like the idea, please share this post on your page and/or with anyone who might be interested. Thanks.

Last year the TST fleet covered about 200,000 miles, often over this same stretch of Highway 80 and occasionally in similar conditions. Huge respect to our drivers and to the FedEx driver in this video for knowing how to handle it:

This isn't your grandpa's Northstar California Resort but it sure is a popular destination for our passengers. As the preferred local private SUV service of both the Ritz Carlton and Northstar Mountainside Residences, we connect thousands of passengers each year between Northstar and all the airports (KTRK, RNO, SMF and SFO). Come see for yourself:

Back in the day Northstar, a ski resort in the North Lake Tahoe area, was a country cousin to more hardcore Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows.

More bad news from uber…but thanks to our customers for supporting our locally owned private car service!! We promise to never stalk you (read the article) or share your private information :)

Feeling pretty lucky to have the best crew of drivers we've ever had going into the busiest time of year!! Our drivers get lots of compliments but handwritten notes are always a bonus.

TST drivers work hard and play harder. What did your driver do on his most recent day off?

06/03/2016

Proud to say that TST is the opposite of uber, in so many ways. Thank you for supporting our locally owned business!!

Uber is churning through drivers so quickly, they are offering exploitative leasing programs designed to trap low-income drivers.

Who says it’s slow season? TST was five cars deep all week at the Village at Northstar. September = Second Summer.

TST does more than RNO transfers. Thanks to GoPro for keeping us busy all week with bike shuttles and dinner trips!!

Throwback Friday: before there was Tahoe Sierra Transportation, before there was Truckee Tahoe Transportation, there was Mountain Cab (MC, a tribute to the man who inspired it all). Primary business was acting as the getaway car for the Red Bull Airforce. Happy to say our business has matured and grown! Thanks Court Leve photo.

Cool stuff going on in North Tahoe: http://www.gotahoenorth.com/events

Whether you came for the sun or the snow, racing or relaxing, the North Lake Tahoe calendar goes as far beyond business hours as your energy level.
