Alpine Caching


Last week Mike and I spent two days geocaching and exploring in the Monitor Pass and Lake Tahoe areas. The first day we climbed up a dirt road off of Highway 395S that took us straight up the side of a mountain into alpine meadows and aspen groves. We had a beautiful view of Topaz Lake and the valleys to the east. We traveled down the other side to the Monitor Pass area and continued on to Markleeville and Grover Hot Springs. The second day we went up Spooner Summit to Genoa Peak Road that took us on a forest service road along a ridge above Lake Tahoe. When we reached Kingsbury Road we went on around Tahoe which we discovered is a 72 mile trip.
