PIE IN THE SKY

It's pretty beat when a dude's board delaminates during an air-to-fakie, forcing him to bail only to tail bonk a picnic table. Conversely, it's hard to stay focused when your stomach's growling. Sierra-At-Tahoe moistens the mouth with the first-ever Pizza Utility Vehicle. Patrolling the resort's parking lot late afternoons, the PUV delivers the extra energy pinwheeling grommets need for the drive home.

"The concept is a throwback to the ice cream truck that drives through the neighborhood except our PUV offers homemade pizzas, chips, and sodas," explains Sierra's Nicole Belt.

Located on Echo Summit, 35 miles south of Lake Tahoe and 40 miles from Placerville, and void of any substantial lodging nearby, Sierra-At-Tahoe caters exclusively to day trippers.

"All you have to do is flag the PUV down and your tummy's in for a happy ride home," says Belt
