Six for Seniors: Great day hikes near Lake Tahoe!
This video recommends some really nice day hikes in the Lake Tahoe region for active seniors. These hikes tend to be five to seven miles long and ascend into some beautiful high country near Tahoe. I recommend about a half dozen hikes in total, including trail maps and nature views -- and even some extensions for the ambitious hiker! I've hiked each of these trail many times over the last five decades, so I know them well. Please share your trail thoughts in the comments.
