Lake Tahoe is one of those destinations I have heard about for much of my life, mostly from people who told me it was the greatest place they had ever visited. I suspected they were exaggerating or simply had not visited enough places to make the judgment.
Now I think those folks might have been correct. A recent visit to the Greater Tahoe area confirmed that it held more appeal than I had imagined, beginning with some of the most striking natural views I have experienced.
