Highways to California's Inland
Empire
We met the folks from the
Inland Empire at the Com-Dex Trade Show in
Vancouver, and were impressed by their program. For
that reason we invite you to contact them for
further information, The following is an excerpt
from material they sent to our Info Desk
:
From wildlife to nightlife,
the Inland Empire has it all. And if you're looking
for adventure, look no further. The Inland Empire
Tourism Council is pleased to offer this directory
of opportunities for fun and adventure in Southern
California's Inland Empire: The Inland Empire has a
varied landscape of chaparral-covered deserts,
mile-high apple ordchards, snow-cap
Perfect settings for
adventure.
The San Bernardino National Forest offers
endless opportunities for outdoor fun. Cities rich
in heritage offer visitors a glimpse of the
Victorian era, while Calico Ghost Town preserves
the romance of the Old West. You'll find it all
here: from a sunrise flight in a hot-air balloon to
a hike along the Pacific Crest Tail; from a quiet
ride in a horse-drawn carriage to parachuting from
a plane. Where else can you water ski on a quiet
lake in the morning and skim down snowy ski runs in
the afternoon? The sun-kissed Inland Empire gets it
all--great weather, tourist attractions, year-round
recreation and prize-winning wines. Adventure is
always in season here.
