Tahoe Rim Trail, I'm Done!

Here's a nice view looking South on the Brockway to Tahoe Meadows section.  This was my last section to complete on the Rim Trail.  I hiked from Echo Lakes clockwise around the west side, to the Northeast corner of the lake, in Nevada, at Hwy 431 near Mt. Rose (Tahoe Meadows).  89 miles, 6-days, 3 wilderness areas, 2 bear encounters, and no blisters.  Just returned home from a beautiful hike that completed my loop on the Tahoe Rim Trail.  165 miles total.  What's next?  Why, the JMT in '09 of course!
