Point Mariah panorama, Royal Gorge Cross Country Ski Resort, Soda Springs, California


We had been meaning for years to visit the Royal Gorge Cross Country Ski Resort in Soda Springs, California to experience what it's like to cross country ski at a resort.  Most of our skiing has been on trails in national parks or national forests.  The winter of 2017-18 had been pretty dry until good storms in March finally built up the snowpack.  So, in late March, we spent a day skiing at this resort and our intended destination on their trail system was Point Mariah, since it overlooks the Royal Gorge that the resort is named for.  It turns out that the Royal Gorge is the entire headwaters area of the North Fork of the American River.

This panorama is a merger of several vertical shots.

Remember, it's not just a picture, it's a story.
