Fall Colors
The mountains around Reno/Tahoe are a spectacular place to be in the fall. Aspen, maple, oak and pine show their colors and get ready for the winter with beautiful foliage. The weather is still nice and warm too!

A day trip to Lake Tahoe or the surrounding mountain lakes can be quick and easy.
