This Taco Bell and CALPAK Collab is (Literally) Fire

By

CAUTION: Hot and spicy getaways are coming your way! Just in time for summer travel season, CALPAK has unexpectedly collaborated with your favorite fast-food brand, Taco Bell, to produce spicy products that are on fire. The cult-favorite restaurant makes an appearance in CALPAK’s luggage and accessories collection with carry-on luggage, a crossbody bag, a duffel bag, and packing cubes for any and all travel needs. The best part is they are all named after Taco Bell’s signature hot sauces and even match the color of the spice levels! Picture this: Walking through TSA and everyone knowing you are a Cheesy Gordita Crunch-loving fanatic just by your fiery limited edition merch.

REAL ID deadline is almost here: What to do if you don’t have one yet
Don't have your REAL ID yet? Follow these steps
Person about to get in line at the airport.

If you haven’t gotten your REAL ID yet, it’s time to stop procrastinating. The deadline is May 7, 2025, according to the DHS, and once it hits, you’ll need a REAL ID (or a valid passport) to board domestic flights and access certain federal buildings. That quick weekend getaway or work trip could get a lot more complicated if you show up at the airport with the wrong ID.

So, what exactly is a REAL ID? It’s a state-issued driver’s license or ID that meets federal security standards established after 9/11. It looks pretty similar to your current license, but it’ll have a little star in the upper corner, which is how you know it’s compliant.

Spring snow and sun collide at Palisades Tahoe for the perfect ride
From powder to patios: spring snowboarding in Lake Tahoe hits different
Agate Bay, Lake Tahoe

It was an April morning at Palisades Tahoe ski resort, and the California sun glowed on the mountain. On the ride up the KT-22 Express chairlift, a.k.a. The Mothership, I took in the surroundings. Below, The Fingers, a giant rock outcropping, swelled up and out from the pitch. To my left and right, swaths of snow-covered terrain, with cliffs and rock formations scattered throughout, extended to the horizon. In the distance, Lake Tahoe peeked from beyond the ridgeline. As I slid down the exit ramp, I weaved to the right and surveyed the drop into GS Bowl, with a harrowing incline and moguls reminiscent of compact cars. It was 60 degrees, and I was wearing a T-shirt. 

I was on a spring sojourn to Palisades Tahoe, a ski resort famous for terrain that combines hair-raising inclines, massive acreage, and cliffs galore. Over the years, countless ski and snowboard films, along with the athletes who appear in them, have used the mountain as a playground for world-class skiing and riding.
