Stand up paddle boarding D.L. Bliss State Park to Emerald Bay, Lake Tahoe

Last weekend was wonderfully quiet at Lake Tahoe. For how nice the weather was, there just weren’t that many people around. Dani and I took our stand up paddle boards to D.L. Bliss State Park and paddled to Emerald Bay and back.

The cliffs that we like to jump off of are a no-go this year. The lake level is too low. We did pass by two guys that had SUP’ed to a crack and were climbing up it. Definitely a neat crag. The other notable feature on the paddle was a ~50 foot log sticking nearly straight up out of the lake.

We drank beer, swam and took our time. All in all, definitely a nice afternoon.

That evening we played bocce ball lakeside, saw a beaver and a gigantic trout and ate dinner at Sunnyside. Tahoe bliss.

Light winds and few boats made for a great day of stand up paddle boarding between D.L. Bliss State Park and Emerald Bay.
