PACIFIC COAST TRAIL

PCT Day 71: Lake Tahoe R&R

ByPurple Haze Posted onJuly 5, 2013September 21, 2025

Daily Miles: 0, Total Miles: 1159.0

What a wonderful break we had a for a few days at the Fireside Lodge!

Consumed massive calories, had a few beers and glasses of wine, bike rides along Lake Tahoe, hikes at nearby bays and waterfalls, tandem kayak paddle on the lake, and 4th of July on the lake for fireworks.

Even had time for a little shopping, replacing my burnt, torn, holey and baggy pants!

Also time to replace my 2nd pair of shoes.

Mrs. Haze organized a heavenly, relaxing massage. Back to the trail tomorrow!
