OK, I was wrong. Dead wrong. Lake Tahoe wasn’t past peak. Only where I was, was past peak.
More evidence of my fallibility arrived today with these images taken by Clayton Peoples who writes Emerald Bay was just starting when he reported about Taylor Creek a couple of weeks ago. It now is at Peak.
This is another area of Tahoe that might be beautiful once snow drops on Friday. So, put on your list of must-visits: Lam Watah Nature Trail (Stateline), and if there isn’t a snow closure on CA-89, the Eagle Lake Trail and Emerald Bay overlook. All might have a combination of snow and fall color on Friday or Saturday morning.
- Emerald Bay, Lake Tahoe (6,500′) – Peak (75-100%) GO NOW!
