For today’s winter road trip destination, we’re branching out of our Midwest roots and venturing onwards to the West Coast for Winter Vacation in Lake Tahoe, in California and Nevada!  Even in the colder months this region nestled in the Sierra Nevada range boasts an absolutely magnificent natural environment to explore filled with glistening ice, ultra clear teal waters, impressive evergreens, and some of the most memorable landscape views.  The Lake Tahoe area covers 12 different unique towns and resorts: Alpine Meadows, Carnelian Bay, Crystal Bay, Donner Summit, Incline Village, Kings Beach, Northstar, Olympic Valley, Tahoe City, Tahoe Vista, Truckee, and West Shore; we won’t quite have enough space to delve into every single area, but we’ve cherrypicked some highlights for you as as jumping off point!  We can’t wait to visit, how about you?  Let’s hop in your new car from Classic and hit the road.

We’re taking a break from our skiing, snowboarding, and snowshoeing coverage to bring you an exciting change up in winter sports: fat tire biking!  Fat Tire biking features a frame similar to the typical mountain bike, but the key difference being the bikes are built to accommodate much wider, thicker tires: anywhere from 3.5” up to 6” in average width, and wheel sizes of 26”-27.5”.  These special tires allow cyclists to run the bikes at low pressure and afford additional grift on softer, slippery surfaces such as mud, sand, and snow.  They come in a standard pedal bike option as well as an E-Bike option.

If you’ve found yourself longing for a lake day, filled with sunshine, crystal clear water, and day day of fishing, we get it. We feel the same way!  Alas, winter is here to stay for at least another few months, but you needn’t despair!  You can still enjoy a day outdoors with your fishing pals, just might need a few layers to keep out that wind chill, because we’re going ice fishing!  While it’s not quite a day out on the boat, ice fishing is still a very productive hobby for “off season” anglers. Ice fisherman report record weights and sizes with species such as bluegill, yellow perch, crappie, walleye, northern pike, whitefish and if you’re lucky you might even catch a trout or two.
