If you approach South Lake Tahoe from the South on Highway 50, you likely noticed Horsetail Falls, just a few miles before ascending over Echo Summit. Today I hiked the Pyramid Creek trail, which ascends up to the Falls along some very lovely scenery. Here are some photos.

There are lots of trees here.
