               Life's too short to enjoy all the enjoyable things in the Northern Sierra Nevada. Hemlock Lake is right by the Windmiller Trail, and the best way to spend a winter day is on the slopes of nearby Homewood. Hit the slopes at Sierra at Tahoe in the vicinity, and the peak of Blue Mountain can be observed from Hemlock Lake.

If you come at the right time of year, Silver Creek - South Fork offers some tremendous whitewater; a good place to camp here at Hemlock Lake is Thirty-nine Mile Campground. An average amount of precipitation falls at Hemlock Lake; of all the months in a year January is the one with the most snow while July is the month with the least amount of precipitation.
