Message from Paul Hamill

Bonsai Rock at Lake Tahoe is a cool spot where you can see four little trees growing out of a big rock by the water. It's like nature's own bonsai garden, with these stunted trees defying the odds and looking pretty awesome against the backdrop of the crystal blue lake. Easy to get to from the road, it's a popular spot for nature photographers and anyone who appreciates a touch of zen in the great outdoors. Just watch out for the narrow shoulder parking situation along the highway! Parking is very limited so go early and on a weekday.
