That is one strong roof. Whoever built it should use this as a selling point

[zaarkhananal]

Whoever built that roof deserves major props cause that's one heck of a strong roof. WOW!

[JOSIE_]

This should be an advertisement for the builder/roofer

[alibi]

My mind is blown. I can’t believe you get that much snow. 😱⛄️❄️

[frankiechileman]

After that the house breathed a sigh of relief

[stephaniemccoy]

I’m shocked the side of the roof didn’t break off with it… true testimony of how strong it is… one proud builder for sure!!

[theresaingraham]

Wow. You are so lucky. No one hurt and you still hav a home in 1 piece. ❤❤❤

This was part of our last season in Tahoe. Locally went viral immediately! What a season!!! Had so much fun 🏂🤙🏼 broke the record 2nd highest level of snow ever documented in Tahoe since the 1950s we got over 700” (inches) 58-60feet!!

Shoveling roofs mid to late winter was a major payout. As locals were paying eachother/friends of mine with the proper climbing gear etc. to remove snow from caving in roofs and to prevent any more. They were paying over $100 an hour at points for immediate help. We made it through and had a blast! 🤙🏼👍🏼

That is some pretty good construction you have there.

[hvhqgol]

That's amazing. You literally just got rid of a ton of snow ❄️😮

[lauriechristmas]

Did not think of the bottom half💯💯😱😱😱😱 THAT’S A LOTTA SNOW!!! … GREAT selling point about a strong roof!!!!

I spent a few months in Nor Cal Sugar Bowl area and although I’m from northern Alberta Canada I had to date never seen that much snow. It was during spring so I was there at a golden time seeing the snow melt for weeks and birds and gigantic trees. Truly a life experience I’ll never forget.

[BRBonGiediPrime]

I think you lost some of the house, guys 😅

[maggieekane]

Wow! I m amazed that the weight of that amount of snow didn’t do some structural damage to either the roof or front foundation and weight bearing posts. So much snow! 😳🙀

[ckhdppi]

Сбрасывать свежий снег регулярно... Строителю Дома - восхищение!!!

[lennychorn]

Everyone commenting on how strong the roof is. But the roof wasn't carrying the load. The load was supported by the frozen drift that reached the roofline.

[mcross]

I lived and dealt with snow country for 66 years. I don't miss it at all!

[christinebakker]

This is Northern California? Holy snap you get a lot of snow! I live in Canada and I have never seen snow like this before in my 60+ years!

So sad for you...losing part of your home😢😢😢 It was just like that last winter, Feb & March in Southern CA San Bernardino Mountains. My heart truly goes out to you... many of them are still recuperating from that, including our vehicles (my repairs ammounted to roughly just over $6000) were severely damaged due to the extreme amounts of snow! Twenty foot snow burns everywhere, houses exploding and burning to the ground, trees lost about 2/3 of their growth, massive branches falling off the trees and damaging cars, roads destroyed, no food availability for roughly 2 months, boulders still falling off thee mountain due to damage to the soil, etc. The worst part about our weather back then, it has been proven somebody seeded the clouds left & right, top to bottom...obviously not the government, but a private enterprise) and all the snow got dumped on our mountain region only! . I would be willing to bet it was just the same group that placed fake ballot containers during the last Presidential Election, the same ones that tried to burn down our entire state, the same ones that cancelled forestry protection for 4 years, and thinks it's so funny that our massive Pine Trees exploded when any kind of fire gets near the tree. By the way, the same group that refused to send vaccines (COVID related) for our essential workers and 20 people were buried alive in the midst of the snowstorm. I would guess that would be Donald Trump... I think so 😮💔 His actions killed my mother. He is definitely at the top of my list... and you know which one!!! PLEASE Vote Smart and Go Blue for the very safety of Our Nation and all people here 💙🌈👨‍👩‍👧💙
Prayers are sent your way...and hopefully, if you live in California, you can get help from FEMA. HOWEVER, BE SURE TO APPLY BEFORE THE ELECTION...just in case 😢❤❤❤
