Getting around on our own two feet; most of us have been doing it since we were a year or so old. Starting with baby steps, through the awkward toddler stage, strolling, skipping and sliding, and we were running before we knew it. Now that we're adults, and we've been walking nearly our whole lives, we're pretty good at it. Until it winter comes and we turn back into cautious toddlers. But, snow doesn't need to stop us in our tracks. In fact, motoring through winter weather on snowshoes or Nordic skis, surrounded by the quiet, offers a most excellent recreational pursuit - of body, mind and soul. So, I've rounded up four of my favorite lake trails in Oregon, to explore on two feet. READ MORE On my "5 Winter Wonder Walks" List: Anthony Lakes, Suttle Lake, Crater Lake, Elk Lake & Teacup Lake.

Recognized since 2001 by skiers around the world as one of the best annual ski education programs you can find for citizen/master XC skiers. The Oregon Fall Camp offers citizen skiers the unique chance to take part in a world-class ski education experience regardless of your age or ability level. The XC Ski Camp is intentionally designed to be much smaller and more personalized than other camp/clinic programs.
