The Tahoe Rim Trail | Day 4: Lake Aloha - Richardson Lake (20 miles)
(8/22/23) Today was Desolation Wilderness! Known for being one of, if not the most beautiful sections of the TRT. I had been looking forward to it since planning this hike!
Last I checked the weather at Echo Lake, it was supposed to be clear skies this morning. Instead I woke up to pouring rain, maybe the hardest rain I had experienced on the entire trip. The trail was a river.
Thankfully after a couple of hours, it cleared up. I was so happy because I really wanted to fully see the Desolation Wilderness. And it didn’t disappoint. I went by several beautiful alpine lakes and spent some time at each of them.
I started to ascend Dicks Pass and had incredible views of the lakes I passed earlier in the day, and the surrounding wilderness. The mountains still had quite a bit of snow, making the views from the lakes even more incredible. I think my favorite lake was Fontallis.
The last lake was Middle Velma before more woods walking for several miles where I would exit desolation wilderness, and camp at Richardson Lake. An amazing day, and I even ended up getting some sun!!!
