Tahoe Trip, Part 2

Friday we spent a good part of the day on a long hike. Because of the lack of rain this last year, the lake is down with much wider beaches than normal (see pics in previous post). So, we started out heading east along the lake, just enjoying the water, the sun, and the cool air. When the beach turned into rocks, we turned north and headed up to a regional park we'd hiked in a couple of years ago. Because it's an area for cross country skiing, there are lots of well-marked trails... and some others as well. We headed up the mountain and literally hiked for hours. I think we left our unit around 11:40 and got home about 2:20. Along the way we took a few pics (of course), and here are some of those. Enjoy!

Along the trail (thanks to the timer and a well-placed rock).

Up on the mountain we got this cool shot of two jet contrails crossing in the sky.
