Flume Trail in Lake Tahoe

          Living in the Lake Tahoe area for the last eighteen years and never exploring the Flume trail really disappoints me. Fortunately, today a friend and I finally got the chance to explore this amazing trail. Okay let’s get down to it. So we began out journey at the Spooner lake trailhead and continued along the 4-mile trail to Marlette Lake; however, I am pretty sure the last mile of the climb is a 20% grade. After sweating out maybe five pounds, Marlette Lake finally presents itself. A short snack break took place to celebrate the conquering of the horrible journey up to this point, and then we were off. The last ten or so miles are fairly easy as they are mostly flat or downhill single track. We ended our journey with some smoothies at the Tunnel Creek Cafe, which resides at the end of the trail in Incline Village.

The 10 miles of the ride consisted of amazing views such as this!

My loyal co-pilot

Jax, my loyal co-pilot has been with me for 17 years! I will be extremely sad when he's gone.

Floating the Truckee river

Hmmm...well I guess I should update this thing more often. Everything has been pretty much the same, just busy with school considering this is my last semester (hooray). So I'll be trying my best to update this frequently as I will have some extra free time soon. Anyways yesterday some friends and I decided to go float the Truckee river since it has been so freaking hot lately.
