But, that’s not all:

Join us for our First Annual “Great MLRTahoe Hat Drop”.
Ok, What’s a MLRTahoe Hat Drop?

You are given clues and then get to hike in the forest, wander North Lake Tahoe’s beautiful beaches and play in the lake—all while finding a cool MLRTahoe Hat with a special message inside that will lead you to more treasures and prizes. Every week for the next several weeks we will be hiding a hat in some truly amazing, yet accessible places. Yes! These special hats will be visible, fun hunting, and pretty easy to find—if you follow our clues.

Park near Trail Head, Follow the trail up to view the dramatic yet tranquil surroundings and the convergence of Alpine and Palisades Ski Resorts; continue just 1.5 miles from the trailhead, past beautiful rock formations and shaded forests.
