What is left from the 1960 WINTER OLYMPICS at Palisades Tahoe near Lake Tahoe and Reno, Nevada?

Find out what remains (currently used and abandoned) from the 1960 Winter Olympics at what was formerly Squaw Valley, located between Lake Tahoe and Truckee in California! This was a major event for Reno, Nevada as well. We’ll break down how this location was chosen and why. We’ll see buildings that are still there from that time, and sites on the landscape that suggest that this was a miraculous event for the Reno/Tahoe area 65 years ago from the date of this filming! Please visit our merch shop! Shirts, hats, stickers etc.!

Growing this channel should get me the credibility to get access to even better content for you! Title theme written and performed by Steve. Drums by Scott Taylor. Other music courtesy of the YouTube Creator library. This is the place to learn interesting things about Reno, the state of Nevada and the American west! I've lived in Reno for 38 years (as an adult!). I've had a lifelong interest in history and spend much time exploring and researching this wonderful area. I started this channel to share some of what I've learned. I produced a full-length documentary film on the history of Reno's Harolds Club casino in 2015. Perhaps you're thinking of moving to Reno and looking for background on the area, or you're already a resident and this content might help give you a sense of place. I shall endeavor to cater to both groups! I'm also a craft beer enthusiast, and thought I'd talk about some of that scene here as well. I started homebrewing in 1992 and earned the Certified Cicerone designation in 2015 - this is a sommelier-like program for beer people. Please subscribe, share and come along with me on this journey! Thanks and cheers! Steve #history #abandoned #olympics #skiing
