Winter in Sequoia National Park, California 2005 
We stayed at the Wuksachi lodge for two days during President's day weekend.  They have a very good restaurant (pricey) and the rooms are nicely furnished with TV and nice views of the surrounding mountains.  The lodge will rent snowshoes as well as skis.

We hiked on snowshoes to the Tokopah falls and stopped for a photo op at the halfway point.  The trail runs parallel to the Kaweah river.  It is best to start this trail early in the day as it takes 1 1/2 hrs to get to the falls.
