Dispatches: Hyne Site – 1.2 Tahoe Redux

April 12

Ben Ryan from Reason Films has started a camera equipment company. He is selling these camera covers - they look and feel identical to T-shirts. Hit him up for a price.

Most photos & captions: Nick Hyne

Nick Hyne may be from down under but he is still livin’ it up in the Northern Hemisphere. Appears as though he is still in Lake Tahoe. Who can blame him. Since January 1st Lake Tahoe has received 1,264” of fresh snow. You can quote us on that. Here Nick shares a cute puppy photo, a one-footer off a snowmobile and a Macguyver’d beer fridge which is really just a stack of snow with a compartment cut out of it. It’s simplicity doesn’t make it any less genius. Cheers.

After it got warm we decided to hit some rails. This is one of about 5 in a row that we got 'swiftly moved along' from.

So, the crew went to try their luck at the local pick -up spot. Unfortunately it was slim pickings.

I snapped this photo on my iPhone of Nick Brown as I was sprinting up for about my 50th hit at 12.30am.

Husky puppy for the Dispatches female fanbase?

Lake Tahoe is one of only 3 lakes that can tsunami. The others are in New Zealand apparently.

Vaughan Brookfield knows how to attract the birds.

One of two jumps we hit on the first fine day after the storm.

Lunch wasn't the highlight.

A monk and a muslim? Nick Brown and Ben Ryan in the Tahoe Backcountry on a 17C/ 65F degree day.

On our return, we shoveled the deck. Here Browner manicures the beverage cooling unit.

Lake Tahoe sure is beautiful.

Jye and I played a game called 'first pop' while waiting for our ride. Jye landed this kicky first pop and earned himself a 'lemonade'. A great game this game is.
