This place, the Northern Sierra Nevada, has so much outdoors exciting stuff. Heavenly is a glorious local ski area, and after a long day outdoors Tahoe Seasons Resort (Vri) is a wonderful place to spend a night or two. This lake is so wonderful. Going for a hike along the Charity Valley Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this region; you'll meet a lot of people from Gardnerville Ranchos here. If you came to camp Snowshoe Springs Campground is a perfect place to do that; a pleasant tour to High Meadows is a tremendous way to spend an afternoon.
Everybody close by loves skiing at Kirkwood; hiking along the Burnside Lake Trail is perfect fun. This lake is so wonderful. Spend the day on the beach at El Dorado Beach since you're here at Star Lake, and get your heart beating on the good whitewater of Carson River - East Fork.
