Subjects : Alpine lake in the heart of the US Rocky Mountains on the border between California and Nevada, ideal for landscape photography offers all types of subjects: a very high and panoramic slope contrasts with a slope that travels along the lake and allows you to reach several beaches that enjoy sandy and crystalline bottoms with several boulders and pine forests that reach the edge of the body of water and offer almost unique views for a landscape of the mountains. It is very popular with kayakers who sometimes become a good subject. As for the animals, birds and squirrels are possible to meet, almost impossible to come across deer, coyotes and bears given the strong human presence in the area.

Recommended equipment : It's one of those places where anything comes in handy, from wide-angle lenses to extreme telephoto lenses, everything can offer interesting ideas according to your style.

Best months : The area sees several villages and the place is very touristy, in summer of course it is very busy and hot, in winter you can find snow and ice on the roads and temperature well below 0 ° C

How to get there : A little further north than San Francisco from which it is 3/4 hours away, in the eastern part of the Rocky Mountains, it is not a place of passage in classic sightseeing tours but requires an extension of the itinerary by several hours (north for those arriving from California, south for those arriving from Oregon). The nearest city is Sacramento which, although it is the capital of California, is also off the classic tourist routes.

Visits : Some areas are state parks so they require the payment of the entrance fee (with the pro of having the services usable).
