I got some terrific views from the slops of Barker Peak. The clouds made the pictures, but also promised of the coming rain. After about 5 miles the TRT (Tahoe Rim Trail) departs from the PCT (Pacific Crest Trail) and decent into Ward Creek, which leads to Tahoe City. The thing about Tahoe City is that it is just where the Truckee River leaves Lake Tahoe and so it is on the Tahoe Rim.
Checked into a motel, got myself cleaned up, it is amazing how much dirt can accumulates in 4 days of hiking.
It started to rain, but I was already in town.
