Lake Tahoe is quickly becoming California's largest summer bouldering area. There are more than 35 areas with more than 1,400 problems and new challenges are discovered every week. What sets Tahoe apart is not just the numbers, it is the variety. You can climb Joshua Tree style rock by the lake or climb Yosemite-esque holds in the forest or drive 30 minutes east to the desert and climb impeccable volcanic pockets. It is all here, it is all year round, and even this book, offering the most complete coverage yet on the subject, can only whet your appetite.
