California with its 58 counties is extremely vast in its terrain, weather and people. You will travel from high mountains with Alpine lakes to arid deserts and coastal plains all within its borders. Plan your travel through California with the time of year in mind, as it makes a huge difference in the places you will go since the weather is so very different in each region of the state. One day you could be swimming in the ocean and the next you could be snow skiing in the high mountains. Take a trip with us through this great state and we will show you all the best it has to offer.
Kirkwood Ski Resort in the High Sierra
On our way to Lake Tahoe via the scenic Hwy 88, one the places that would be on our route was Kirkwood Ski Resort, so we decided to stop by and checkout the resort. I heard about Kirkwood Ski Resort all the time, but I never been there prior to our stop over because I am not really a snow skier. But for most skiers here in the United States, they probably heard of this famous ski resort.
Kirkwood Ski Resort is easily accessible along scenic Hwy 88 coming from Jackson, CA towards Lake Tahoe. We were on our way to Lake Tahoe when we decided to check out this famous ski area. It was fall/autumn time when we where there so there was no snow in the ground yet.
But even without the snow yet, the view of the mountains there and the tall pine trees were definitely a pretty site and worth the stop. The houses in the area, probably vacation houses, were huge and nice and all blends nicely with the beauty and serenity of the place. I can just imagine how pretty it will look during the winter times, with lots of tourists and skiers traffic all geared up and hitting the slopes. 
Kirkwood is known for its snow skiing services, but they also offer so much more other activities aside from skiing like ice skating, tubing hill, snow shoeing, dog sled rides, snowmobiling, ice fishing, etc. They also have lodging, dining and shopping. So Im sure if you visit Kirkwood Ski Resort, there are plenty of things to do for the whole family.

Panoramic shots of exquisite snow clad mountain top terrain and men on skis speeding through velvet powder and hurtling off cliffs in wildly energetic somersaults through the crisp cold air make this documentary film about extreme skiing’s pioneers and pros a thrill for armchair adventurers.

Heavenly In South Lake Tahoe
One of the favorite area that I really liked during our short trip at South Lake Tahoe late last year (2007) was our visit at Heavenly. If you are a skier, you probably heard of Heavenly Ski Resort, one of the most popular ski resort around Lake Tahoe. But during our visit to Heavenly area, I realized that the area of Heavenly is so much more than just for skiing. In the foothills and valleys below the Heavenly Ski Resort mountain slope, you will see shopping malls with all kinds of great specialty shops, restaurants, snack bars, banks, and more. We also noticed a circular ice skating rink in the middle of the mall center, and we also noticed a cable ride.
Most of the shops around Heavenly can be check out by walking on foot. Many of the shops are walking distance from each other so you see lots of great unique items that you can buy as souveneirs of your visit. During our visit there, we saw wide variety of choices as far as souvenier items. Great souvenier items like t-shirts, jackets, postcards, carved wooden animals, stickers, kitchen utensils, hats, and a lot more items with mostly Lake Tahoe messages in them.
