From the issue Field Trip!

No summer is complete without a trip to the lake. Get to Lake Tahoe South Shore this summer for the West's best combination of outdoor adventure and alfresco entertainment.

Bike Big Blue:
Join an elite club by cycling the full 72 miles around North America's largest alpine lake. The 8th annual Tour de Tahoe has been named one of America's most beautiful bike rides.

Like a Rolling Stone: Bob Dylan will be strummin' and hummin' to help wrap the 2010 Summer Concert Series at Harveys Outdoor Arena at Lake Tahoe South Shore. The Three Divas and Chickenfoot are also on the calendar. The stars are even brighter at 6,200 feet!

Sample the Sierra:
The inaugural market-to-table event features tastings from the Sierra Nevada's best chefs and restaurants––all created with local produce, and paired with regional wines and brews. Whirl through a marketplace filled with honey, jams, olive oil and soaps, and enjoy acoustic musicians and other entertainment. Sample the Sierra!

Personal Best: Gain serious bragging rights by running from Tahoe City all the way to South Lake Tahoe. Lake Tahoe Marathon Week is a five-day celebration of high-altitude running, with a range of options including an all-downhill 10k and a standard 5k. Or straddle state lines in the new Aflac Iron Girl Lake Tahoe South Shore Triathlon. Start with a swim in California and transition to biking and running in Nevada. Happy feat!
