Jenny suggested a girls' day at Angora Lakes and Brady suggested the activity so off the four of us went on a glorious Friday in Tahoe.

Angora Lakes Resort Day Use Area Essential Eligibility Criteria: We endeavor to offer a unique day use experience at Angora Lakes Resort, a historic Lake Tahoe front-country location.  To safely enjoy the resort, visitors must meet the following essential eligibility criteria: Participants must have the ability to safely hike, bike or use other nonmotorized means (including with assistance of a companion)  to go up and down hill at least a mile roundtrip over rocky, rugged, slippery, and sandy terrain, with obstacles up to 18” high, at 7000-7500’ elevations. There are no paved surfaces beyond the Angora Parking area.

Named for the Angora goats that were grazed here in the 1870s, the resort was built by the Hildinger family who still own it.  A pitcher of lemonade is a required conclusion to a day at the lake.
