South Bay Accent - Oct/Nov 2016

SIERRAS IN THE WINTER GETAWAYS IN THE SIERRAS don’t always have to be strictly ski-centric. Powder hounds and snowsport lovers have options galore to keep themselves amused and exhilarated as they break a sweat even in the chilliest temps. And if you’re up for recreation that does not require signing a waiver, low impact activities abound. Whether you crave high-octane adventure or prefer a more relaxed approach to the outdoors, the mountains offer a wealth of ways to frolic in the snow. ¶ Lake Tahoe’s legendary clear, blue beauty draws visitors year-round, and it’s no wonder. The 22-mile-long alpine lake has a 72- mile shoreline, split between California and Nevada and dotted with towns full of character—and almost all of the area’s cities grant access to world-class resorts. ¶ Head a little farther afield and you’ll find even more off-the-beaten path adventures throughout the snowcapped Sierras.
