Third day of my Lake Tahoe trip. I decided to snowshoe to Rose Knob Peak on the Nevada side of the lake today.<\/p>\n

While weather was warm and sunny for the previous two days (I wasn’t even wearing the winter jacket that I brought), today it took a turn for the worse. On the bright side, the forecasted 30% precipitation rate did not result in any snowfall. However, wind was certainly the strongest I’d seen for the entire week. In anticipation of this not-too-cooperative weather, I opted to hike Rose Knob Peak, which was shorter than Roundtop Peak two days ago, and had even less elevation gain than Maggies Peak the previous day.<\/p>\n

At about 9:30am, I arrived at the trailhead by Tahoe Meadow \/ Incline Lake Road. After dressing and packing up, I ventured into the forest.
