Skiing
We were delighted when we first went skiing in the Sierra Nevadas. So easy to get to and get onto the piste quickly. Great for beginners and intermediates, very friendly and guaranteed snow all season through till Easter.
We are close enough (just over 2 hours) to pop up a couple of times in a week for a really fun time but a little too far to use us as a base for skiing.
