We had a gala of time over 3 days. First day was Snow tubing…read more(they were not open for sledding)... while it was crowded being the 2nd day after the first snowfall of hte season, it was fine. The kicker was that they gave a 50% off Learn to Ski package (cross-country skiing) which saved us several $$$ the next few days. Not only did cross-country skiing was fun (first time for us), the instructors were very patient and effective. The 2nd day I went (on a Monday morning), my group lesson became Private lesson as I was the only on in the class. Even more savings :-) The Warming Hut cafe is a great touch after doing some trails. The food was great here. The tracks for cross-country skiing was kept up. Our entire group (multiple kids and adults) had a great time. Weather was good as well as a bonus.

It was a toss up between BV or Leland's...after reading the reviews for Leland's, I opted for BV…read more It was my kids first time in the snow and I didn't want them to have a horrible crowded first experience. We had to leave early because I wanted to be there close to opening time if 9am, we got there around 10am and there were plenty of parking spots and tubes for the kids to ride. For 6 people, 4 tube rentals for 2hrs it cost me $160. At Leland's I would've paid $240. It was a pleasant experience. The staff was very friendly and seemed genuinely happy doing their job. We had so much fun, the kids were whooped after the two hrs. At first I don't think that two hrs would be enough, but it was perfect. It's an honor system for the amount of time you use the tubes, don't be the one who tries to use them all day. There are a lot of people coming into the park at all times of the mid morning. 2 1/2hes is more than plenty to wear the little ones out. We will definitely be back and would recommend Bear Valley Adventure Co to anyone who has kids.

It's like going into a wide open service center that is specifically designed to stream line your repair needs.

While Brent was fixing my tire, I wandered next door to Sonora Press for a project that Todd had just completed. Then to Live Oak Music for a chat with Ron about the next 209 Club gathering, 2nd Saturday of the month around 2 PM. He said Lloyd is having a head liner come for the next get together on Sat, December 13th; a big deal.

// 11 Stars, Because 5 Just Ain't Enough…read more This isn't just a bike shop--it's a little hub of stoke tucked away in Avery. Run by the coolest husband-and-wife (and daughter) team, they're super down to earth and know their stuff when it comes to downhill, bikes, service and gear. But what keeps me coming back isn't just the bikes (though they've got all the good stuff)--it's the community they've built. Friday night shop rides in the summer? Yep. Mini concerts in the parking lot? Totally. Post-ride BBQs and beers? Every time, good vibes only. It's one of those rare places where you walk in for a tune-up and end up staying to hang out. Local, genuine, and just rad in all the right ways. Every time you stop in, you feel more like a friend than a customer. Support places like this--they make mountain towns feel like home.
