I stopped at this Visitors Center prior to boarding a shuttle to the Thunderbird Lodge tour. The center has LOADS of information about the Tahoe area, and both of the employees were very pleasant and willing to share detailed information about what is in in the area, based on my questions. They were able to offer suggestions about several area hikes, natural sights, and even some shopping tips! The center also has lovely grounds surrounding it, and there is even a little room of Ponderosa memorabilia in the main building. This center really exceeded my expectation of a ‘visitors center!!’

Wonderful to watch salmon return which brought the bears to feast. Mid Oct hit the trifecti: fall color changes of the Aspens, returning salmon, bear viewing. Rainbow Trail is great for all ages and an easy paved walk.

I had read Isabella Bird's A Lady's Life in the Rocky Mountains which I encourage everyone to read if you are interested in western history in the late 1800s most especially written by an indomitable, eloquent woman who traveled alone in the wild west. Isabella traveled from San Francisco to Truckee on the Central Pacific RR and her observations of Truckee and the region are well worth reading (as well as her journeys into Colorado). I stopped at the Welcome Center (located in the current train station but not the location where Isabella arrived) to tell them about this book. The woman there showed me maps and information about the railroad and locations where the snow sheds and tunnels were built where Isabella no doubt came through. I was intrigued and later went up Donner Pass to see for myself the historic tunnels and snow sheds. I am glad I stopped because I would never have known anything about this area had it not been for the kind woman at the Welcome Center and of course Isabella Bird.
