The adventure lifestyle
Many of us heard the call of the mountains and were awe-struck by the beauty of the Tahoe region and the lifestyle – daily commutes along lakes and rivers, a morning paddle, a lunchtime trail run, an after-work hike, a life lived with our best pal – our dogs – at work and at play, and plenty of time for the things that make us happy. That’s what brought me and my friends and family to the mountains, just as it did for Todd Jackson, founder of Big Blue Adventure.
Todd turned his passion for the outdoors and adventure racing into the successful Big Blue Adventure, which will host 22 events this year with everything from mountain bike races to triathlons. Kayla Anderson spoke to Todd recently about his call for our cover story on “Building an action-packed life.”
The adventure lifestyle is enjoyed by many in Tahoe and Truckee from the hard core athlete to the novice. Alpenglow Sports hosts the Mountain Festival again this summer to encourage those at every ability level to explore the mountains offering guided adventures from crack climbing to hiking for beginners and everything in between. Read Wet ‘n’ Dirty in this issue for a look at what the festival has to offer.
Tim Hauserman is a local that has enjoyed his adventure lifestyle from mountain biking and hiking (including penning the guidebook for the Tahoe Rim Trail), to watersports and road biking. One of his favorite outings is the Tour de Manure and he shares his love for this annual event in “Small-town vibe on Tour de Manure.”
