Rubicon Trail - July 15, 2017
We start the hike at Bliss State Park. It is a 6-mile hike (out and back) along Lake Tahoe wth pristine views of the deep blue to emerald green water, truly the 'Jewel of the Sierra' as John Muir noted. Granite steps at the beginning of the hike are fairly steep. There are more steps at various places along the trail with some ups and downs and a gradual decline to our lunch area at a lovely cove. Around 3 p.m. we will have a late lunch at Brother's Bar and Grill on Hwy 89.
