Jake's Peak

Jake's Peak is a popular ski destination on the west shore of Lake Tahoe. Don't expect to get the first tracks, you'll probably see a skin track a mile wide from the parking lot. Jake's is popular because of its close proximity to the road, steep descent, and good snow. This track is just one of many ways down, and you should find your own way down. This is too steep to be a cross-country ski trip. "Do you want to make your own track as a courtesy to the skiers?" Dogs are common here.
