🚴🏽One of the top MTB trails in the Folsom-Sacramento area. Not for beginners. This sign ain't no joke!💥

The shimmering, jewel hued waters of the aptly named Emerald Bay was a sight for sore eyes. By far the best view in Lake Tahoe! My only regret was not packing my swimsuit.. or a decent pair of walking shoes to hike down to Vikingsholm.

Hike the Eagle Lake trail! If hiking in winter, I recommend Goretex boots, water resistant pants, trekking poles, snacks and optimism. The views are incredible and completely worth "power sliding" through the snow ;) Snow shoes would have been a great addition too.
Up by #fallenleaflake in #southlaketahoe got some sweet #waterfall action shots!
