Our site names Reno, Carson City and the surrounding areas, so ask whether your address is on the snow route when you call. The Daggett Pass station is 0.7 mile from Kingsbury's center and about 200 feet higher, which makes it the closest official gauge to any Tahoe-side town we serve. It records about 21.8 inches of precipitation a year, more than twice what falls in the Carson Valley below. ## At a glance - Elevation about 7,126 feet - Daggett Pass: 21.8 inches of precipitation a year at 0.7 mile - About 68% of homes built before 1980 - About 48 minutes from our yard without traffic ## The numbers at the top of the Grade Daggett Pass averages about 21.8 inches of precipitation a year and a mean temperature of 43.3 F (NOAA 1991-2020). Minden, in the valley below, records 9.3 inches. That is the difference between a manageable winter and one where snow keeps coming back. There is no snowfall normal on this side of the lake; Tahoe City across the lake averages 179.0 inches as a regional reference. ## Cabins and steep drives About 68% of Kingsbury homes were built before 1980, and the median home dates to 1976 (ACS 2020-2024; a small community, so treat figures as approximate). Older cabins often have steep, narrow, tree-lined drives. Skid steers and small plows reach where full-size trucks cannot, and we shovel by hand when a drive is too tight for either. Where snow cannot be pushed aside, we haul. ## Why timing matters on a grade A steep drive that is not cleared before nightfall refreezes and becomes ice by morning. We salt and treat ice as part of the service. Tell the office the grade of your driveway, whether it is shaded and where your car is parked. ## How far is Kingsbury from the yard? The yard is 33 miles and about 48 minutes from Kingsbury without traffic. Winter conditions on the Grade may add to that, and we do not promise arrival times. The best step is a call to [775.232.8243](tel:775.232.8243) before the season, when the office can plan around your address. Our snow team is available around the clock in season. ## Equipment that can climb Not every machine belongs on a grade. Tracked skid steers and loaders grip on snow where wheeled equipment spins, and a small blade can handle a drive that a full-size truck cannot enter. We decide at the estimate what the property needs, and note any overhead branches, which our tree crews can deal with before the storms. If the home is a vacation cabin, tell the office when it is occupied. A clear drive on the weekend is a different job than a clear drive through a week of storms, and the estimate reflects it. ### Sources - [NOAA NCEI U.S. Climate Normals 1991-2020, Daggett Pass station (USC00262119), Minden (USC00265191) and Tahoe City, CA (USC00048758)](https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/land-based-station/us-climate-normals) (retrieved October 1, 2026) - [U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024 five-year estimates, Kingsbury CDP](https://data.census.gov/) (retrieved October 1, 2026) - [OSRM routing on OpenStreetMap roads, free-flow drive time from 6301 US Highway 50 East, Carson City](https://project-osrm.org/) (retrieved October 1, 2026) - **Drive from our yard:** about 48 min 33.3 miles - **Elevation:** 7,126 ft USGS - **USDA hardiness zone:** 7a 2023 map - **Homes built before 1980:** 68% median year built 1976 Sources: drive time from our yard at 6301 US Highway 50 East, free-flow, OSRM / Census Geocoder; elevation, USGS 3DEP; hardiness zone, USDA 2023 map; housing figures, U.S. Census Bureau ACS 2020-2024 five-year estimates; wildfire risk, USDA Forest Service Wildfire Risk to Communities (April 2026 data).
