Does anyone know how to find Bonsai Rock on Lake Tahoe's east shore?

Kartik,

I've been there several times.

This rock formation is just south of Sand Harbor along Tahoe's
Northeastern shoreline. Here are directions from the Incline Village
area...

Head south on Hwy 28 and just after you pass Sand Harbor you will climb
a hill. At the top of the first hill, park in the dirt pullout on the
right. Over the side, you will see a rock formation set in the
turquoise waters. Bonsai rock is part of this formation.

You will need to hike down to the shoreline, but you will see that there are paths
made for people getting to this location. It is a popular place it seems for locals to
hangout, drink and swim.

Let me know how it goes.

-Edward.

Thanks Edward, this is a location that had eluded me during my previous short visit to the area, i think I got close but must of turned around just short of it!
