Tahoe Donner XC - A loop for beginners or a blustery day

One nice thing about Tahoe Donner XC is that it has some large areas, such as the Euer Valley, that are more sheltered than Royal Gorge when the wind is blowing and the snow is flying.   This 15km loop, informally known as “Coyote Crossing”, hits 3 warming huts and features gentle downhill grades for beginners lacking downhill skills.
