Winter is almost here and the question is where to ski this year? In January 2007 I went out west to Lake Tahoe, California. Flying into Sacramento is the easiest way to get there, then rent a car—4-wheel drive a must—and watch as the terrain transforms from temperate weather with views of the Pacific into a complete winter wonderland of snow-covered evergreens. Ask about Homewood, its not as vast as Alpine Meadow or the site of the 1960 Olympics, Squaw Valley, but it’s the local favorite with superior lake views as you’re heading downhill. I’m a big fan of all sorts of yoga but be sure to stop at Bikram Yoga Tahoe—even if you’re not into the heat, you can still get one of the greatest massages of your life—particularly important for me after being pummeled by a snowboarder. If you happen to be around Lake Tahoe in the warm season, note that the bikram students cool off by taking a dip in the lake right outside the studio.
