Eagle Falls & Old Pines @ Lake Tahoe

This enormous old pine trunk sits atop Eagle Falls.

Here's a very non-artistic but contextual look at the same tree. This picture is complete with the shadow of my head and that of a by-stander's.

During the spring thaw I would be under several feet of rushing water at this same spot. 

Here's a less colorful take on the same view.

The very top of Eagle Falls.

This is the kind of drive that sends my bride into an eye-closed tizzy.  The picture doesn't do justice to this ridge-drive with sheer drops on either side. It seems that me taking pictures while driving on said ridge doesn't help ease her any.
