Welcome to one of the most beautiful, wild and scenic areas of California, The Sierra Nevada mountains and surrounding foothills. This area is unique in all the world. It is home to some of the most beautiful parks in the US National and California State Park Systems. The Sierra Nevada Range stretches from roughly Tehachapi in the south almost to the Oregon, California border in the north. The region includes Yosemite Valley, the goldrush regions of the "1849'rs" and the most scenic and popular ski areas in California. Many people aren't aware that most of California is a desert, in fact all of California except for the north coast and the Sierra Nevada Range. The majority of the water in California originates here and on the north coast. The majority of the water consumption is in the valley, coastal and southern portions of California. Our goal is to educate and entertain you. You'll read everything there is to know about the Sierra Nevada range both then and now. |
