Lake Tahoe is one of our two favorite places for beautiful
scenery. (The other is Glacier
National Park.) We have made several day trips over the years, but this
is the first (but hopefully not
the last) time we have camped here. We really liked Fallen Leaf Campground, located a walking distance from Lake Tahoe.
Fallen Leaf Lake, a short distance from our campsite, was serene and seemed like the perfect place to sit
and ponder. However, with gale force winds we didn’t linger there for very
long.
The Wanderer was
quite content tucked among the pines while we explored the area.
Wednesday the winds continued to be very strong so we elected
to walk on the path and trail from the campground along south shore of Lake Tahoe.
Thursday was a much better weather day with sunshine, temps
in the 60s and a decrease in wind. We drove to the north end of LakeTahoe and hiked
the Tahoe Rim Trail
to Picnic Rock for a magnificent view of Lake Tahoe.
For us, this is just an enticement. So many trails and bike
paths to explore, we hope to return and stay a little longer.
But now we must wander on down to Placerville and check in
with our wine maker, musician friend, Bill.
