This sign marks the entrance to The Flume Trail which begins at the Marlette Lake dam. Horses are NOT allowed presumably because of the danger on this narrow trail.
Down the Flume Trail we go. This trail is narrow single track for several more miles.
The Flume Trail runs along a path that was cut years ago for a water flume. As such, the trail is relatively level dropping only about 40' per mile.
Be careful as you ride along the sheer dropoffs. This trail is also very sandy.
There are some fantastic views of Lake Tahoe from the trail.
