Hello All!
Kind of last minute, but my girlfriend and I are going to be in the Lake Tahoe area this weekend and would like to spend the day (Saturday) hiking/snow shoeing. We will have our gear out here, but are completely at a loss as for where to go. Are there any 8-10 mile loops with good vistas that we could hike on Sat? Any suggestions?
I hiked up to Eagle Falls a few weeks ago (above Emerald Bay) and REALLY enjoyed that area. Whats beyond Eagle Falls if I keep hiking into Desolation Wilderness? Is that a potential for a good 8-10 mile loop hike, or are there better options out there?
Thanks for your input!

Options are plenty. If it looks good on the map it probably is.
