Off roading by Lake Tahoe?

Hey everyone! I’ll be in Lake Tahoe until Sunday, I was wondering if anyone knows any quick and easy trails or places just to play around with the truck for a bit?

Reason I say easy is because I don’t have any recovery gear nor an extra vehicle. I’m just about to hit 2k miles so I just wanted to throw the truck on 4H/4L for a bit. Im up here to snowboard, figured I cold take advantage of some light off roading if possible

I haven't been up at all this winter, but one of my favorite little summer places to check out is Long Lake, super mellow access road for a stock truck but a little bit of stuff to watch out for. And then a nice little half mile hike to a beautiful lake! You could also check out the whole Jackson Meadows area and the options out there are endless. Sorry I can't be more help!

 

No worries! That’s actually very helpful! I’ll definitely check it out and report back where I end up, Thank you.

 

I saw something on google called monitor pass, anyone have any experience? It’s labeled as an easy trail and looks beautiful!

 

So I found this?
Where it says mountain passes, it says “monitor & Luther- open”
Not sure if maybe it’s a different trail?

Agreed! Which is why I was looking for a very easy trail, more of 2wd trail, just to engage 4H.. get some dirt on the wheels kind of thing. I really wish I would’ve planned this ahead of time! It’s really just a snowboarding trip, realizing it’s beautiful out here, and wanting to get out some more.
