"Tahoe Rim Trail, Exploring the Jewel" takes the reader on an "arm-chair hike" on the Tahoe Rim Trail, segment by segment. Mark Vollmer's informative text describes the geologic and natural history on this virtual trek above one of the most spectacular lakes in the world. Far above the hustle and bustle of lake shore tourism, photographs by Vollmer and Scott Sady make the quiet splendor of the Rim Trail accessible to all.
