That's right, a semi-planned detour into a whole new state! From South Lake Tahoe I had the option to continue south through Markleeville and over Monitor Pass to Topaz Lake, but I opted to go east (into Nevada), up and over Kingsbury Grade (wheee!) and down into Minden to stay the night with my friends Daryl and Jackie. Veteran blog-readers may remember Daryl, I stayed with him at the beginning of my trip across Nevada in 2012.
So, the route today has been Highway 395, taking the back way to Topaz Lake. It's been a nice taste of high desert, just a little reminder of that 2012 trip. Not that I'm tired of all the rivers and forests I've been riding through but it's nice to have a change of scenery.
The other picture is the view of Topaz Lake from the top of the highway.
