Winter RVing in the Sierra Nevada
MotorHome
When winter snows blanket the Sierra, most campgrounds and RV parks shut down. But there are a handful of parks that stay open throughout the winter in an effort to accommodate cross country skiers, snowshoers, downhill skiers, snowboarders and snowmobile enthusiasts.
“We put our water lines down deep enough so they don’t freeze,†said Wally Walker, manager of the 44-site Eagle Ridge RV Park in Graeagle. The park, located at the 4,600-foot level near a remote winter recreation area in the northern Sierra, provides its guests with electricity, cable TV, sewer and campsite snow removal services as well as information on nearby winter recreation activities.
