If you’re a water person, rent a paddleboat, kayak, or my preferred watercraft, a stand-up paddleboard and get out on the water! Often in the fall, the water stays calm and glassy through the morning, so I’ll take a lunchtime paddle break. You can reach the store at 530-544-5323 and the marina at 530-544-BOAT.

Slept at Aloha first night, super hot and exposed but gorgeous and amazing for swimming. Hiked to Gilmore next morning (only 3 miles), dropped my stuff and summitted Tallac—you can see Lake Tahoe, emerald bay, cascade lake, fallen leaf lake, lake Aloha, Suzie lake, and lake Gilmore all at once—practically my whole hike from one viewpoint.
