Here are a some random shots that I took while exploring around Lake Tahoe during the first week of January. I have one thing to say, snow is hard to photograph (and look at). I had heard the term snow blindness but god damn! Shit's bright. I forgot my sunglasses one day and suffered, I was walking around hissing and squinting like .... well like a vampire. No not this kind, more like this. Any how, here is what I managed between my hissing fits and my moments of cold. I didn't realize how cold it gets once the sun goes down in snowy weather. Also after one slip on the ice I learned how to be nimble. I ass-planted really hard and managed not to spill my beer or tea. Don't judge me! I was cold but wanted a beer so I thought having tea as well would balance me out.

Eagle Rock Trail
Eagle Rock is a newer trail on the west side of Lake Tahoe. You can go to this link to see the trail when it is not covered in snow. It was a bit slick due to the snow but it is an easy hike. Our group, which was family only ranged from a three-year old to I assume 60'ish-year old. I am still new to using my camera and I had to fight my gloves off and on frequently to take pictures for the hike. So this is what you get. Enjoy! If you are in a hurry to see the panoramic view of the lake scroll down to the last image.

I hope you enjoy the few photos I was able to capture with my phone when I wasn't too busy falling or too cold to use my phone without dropping it.
