Heavenly MountainGondola Ride 20Aug10

Traveled 85 miles east of Folsom on Highway 50 to South Lake Tahoe where we stopped at the ski resort of Heavenly Village to take a Gondola ride to the top of Mount Heavenly. First top was the "Deck" where there is a large platform to view the entire south lake, then to "Adventure Peak" where games for kids, restaurant and bar is located. Final stop require the use of a ski-lift to the summit where we hiked the rest of the way to the top of the mountain at 10,040 feet elevation. Great day, with great weather and great view of Lake Tahoe, Desolation Wilderness, Nevada's Carson Valley. We then walked around Heavenly Village, crossed into the State of Nevada into the casinos to look around. Nice area, will have to visit again.
