Additional Information

Weather can change rapidly in the mountains. Lightening, hail, snow, or freezing rain, cold temperatures are conditions to be aware of and prepare for certain times of the year. High wind has the power to create large waves on the lake that can capsize kayaks, boats, and paddle boards.

Strenuous activity is more demanding at high altitude and proper hydration of water is important to feel your best and perform your best, whether out on the lake or on the trails. Be well prepared.

Bears are highly active at Lake Tahoe. Never leave food in the car or around campsite unattended. Use bear canisters or bear lockers to prevent attracting bears into camp.
