Backpacking in California's Beautiful Desolation Wilderness | Eldorado National Forest

For the second leg of my trip to the Reno/Tahoe area I found myself in the Desolation Wilderness. This trip was the inaugural Schill Brothers-in-law Outdoors trip, as I took my sister's husband Michael with me. Not only was this his first backpacking trip, but he suggested the Desolation Wilderness, an area in southwest Lake Tahoe. This area was without a doubt the most beautiful area I've ever backpacked in.
