Hello!
My friend and I grew up in Dayton Nevada and have climbed up a few of the mountains in that area, and he has proposed that we take a hike to Hobart Reservoir and then try to make it to Tahoe. I say that he's nuts if he thinks that will be anything that we could do in a day!
Looking at the topological map there does appear to be a few lowland routes that we could follow, Ash Canyon Creek for instance, but I imagine that the terrain is not going to be forgiving, even if it is only 8 miles as the crow flies.
Have any of you hiked from Carson to Tahoe? I can only imagine that the lack of trails and routes over the mountain indicate that it isn't something to take lightly. Thanks in advance for any advice!

Re: Hiking from Carson City to Lake Tahoe
The USGS map shows a road from north of Hobart to Marlette. Slam dunk.
