Three friends of mine decided to take a trip to Lake Tahoe during a winter break that we all shared. We packed our bags, quiet warmly, and hit the road. I had never been to Lake Tahoe before, but my friend, Travis, who lives close by it, traveled there many times and agreed to show us around. It was too early in the season to ski but that did not stop us explorers, hiking through the mountains and forests. The snow atop those mountains and the scenery is something I will never forget.
