Enjoying the outdoors is a big part of what Lake Tahoe is all about. Tahoe has something for everyone. It can mean watching the snow fall while staying warm by the fire or being an Olympic gold medalist. This book is for all those athletes in between.
Many of the excursions can be done on snowshoes or cross country skis. It will depend on your ability level. I say if you can walk, you can snowshoe. Your gait is just a little wider. The bonus about snowshoeing is that it’s free; no need to pay to play at a resort – though that is possible. It’s good exercise, but more important it’s an opportunity to get into nature, to be immersed in her beauty, and to venture places not everyone has gone.
