Lake Tahoe Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia (4K)
Filled with over 39 trillion gallons of pure Sierra snowmelt and pushed a mile into the Californian and Nevada skies, Lake Tahoe is the USA’s largest alpine lake and one of the country’s oldest, year-round vacation playgrounds.
Lake Tahoe has forever drawn travellers to its shores, from the Native Americans who call this place Big Water, to the trappers, timber cutters and pioneers who followed.
When you’re ready for a little alpine magic, take the four-hour drive from San Francisco to the sunlit shores of Kings Beach. Set on Tahoe’s northern end, this beach was named after local card shark, Joe King, who used his winnings to develop some of the lake’s earliest lodgings. On the lake’s southern shore, is Pope Beach, where you’ll find another Tahoe institution, Camp Richardson.
From Pope Beach follow the bike path to the Taylor Creek Visitor Center. An open-air classroom for the entire family, the center features fabulous interpretative walks such as the Rainbow Trail.
Nearby, at DL Bliss State Park, follow the spectacular Rubicon Trail into neighboring Emerald Bay State Park. This park is home to the Eagle Falls Trail, a moderate two-mile hike that takes in some of the Sierra high country’s finest views.
When the ponderosa pines bend with the season’s first snow, Tahoe transforms into the nation’s favorite winter playground. Whether you’re looking for snow-capped peaks or crystal clear coves, places to bond with loved ones or pockets of pure solitude, The Lake in the Sky has it all.

Russian Gulch State Park Waterfall Hike in Mendocino
Hiking the Fern Canyon Trail to the waterfall in Russian Gulch State Park. This trail is north of Mendocino in a fantastic state park that you need to check out. It is one of my favorite parks along this stretch of the coast and if you only have a few minutes to explore, be sure to go to the overlook and see the views of the bridge. If you have more time to explore the park, then take this 5-mile round trip hike to the waterfall.

Cadillac Ranch
An excerpted report about Cadillac Ranch near Amarillo, Texas, shortly after it was built in the mid-1970s.
I am claiming fair use of this excerpt for a news story and review I am writing about a DVD compilation Charles Kuralt and his long-running On the Road series. Also, this clip has historical value.
