Sierra Adventures
On Donner, on Sierra, on Tioga...and off you go, dogs barking, yelping, howling, fast as the wind through the pines, winding down the trail steady and powerful they go. Bring the kids because dog sledding is for the whole family, but season is short. Kids and parents will never forget this adventure.
