As part of our Friends of the Library programs, we hosted a pretty interesting presentation, where we introduced
people to a snippet of TRTA’s 33 year history, as well as its
many programs,
volunteer projects, and all eight segments (of its 165 miles) via a slideshow. The evening provided the public with the knowledge
to be ready for the upcoming hiking season.
The Tahoe Rim Trail is a 165-mile long-distance hiking trail which forms a loop around Lake Tahoe. The trail ranges in elevation from 6,240 feet at the outlet of Lake Tahoe to 10,338 feet at Relay Peak in Nevada. About 50 miles of trail above the lake's west shore are also part of the much longer Pacific Crest Trail. What's really cool about this trail is that it's right here, in our own 'backyard'.

The presentation got us all in the mood for hiking, even though it was snowing while it was happening. Look how happy Janet is to be joining the association!

make sure a few of them are dirt."
