The first portion, which is also the final portion of the hike out, is the steepest.
The trail descends while opening up to views of Lake Tahoe.
Snowshoeing to Skunk Harbor.
A trail sign marks where the trail splits and heads toward either the cove or the Newhall Mansion.
Approaching the lake.
Snow-covered boulders lining the edge of Skunk Harbor.
