This is a 1.7-mile out-and-back moderate trail near Incline Village-Crystal Bay, Nevada. At the top of the hike you can feed the wild chickadees if you bring some bird seed.

Every Saturday the Riverside Farmers Market comes to this cute location next to the Truckee River. I love to go and get fresh produce, listen to live music, partake in activities, eat from food trucks, and explore the locals' arts and crafts. There is no entry fee, but I recommend bringing a bag to carry any purchases.
