Lake Tahoe

The California Side

On our way to the Truckee River for some tubing, we stopped and spent some time on the California side of Lake Tahoe.

 

More Lake Tahoe


It is only 10 miles from Reno to the California border.


And then another 20 miles to the town of Truckee.


Truckee used to be known as Donner Pass, I believe, but they changed
the name to something less appetizing.


Here we are, Lake Tahoe.


The water is really clear (and blue).


Looking for a place to picnic.


You can barely see the snowy peaks on the other (South) end of the lake.


It sure is blue, isn't it?


OK, I've seen enough. Let's go floating on the Truckee River.
