That's a lot of people and cars. Prefer the less populated PNW.

Heh. We almost decided against the trip. One problem with Tahoe, it gets lots of usage, even late in the fall as now! And the Desolation Wilderness (in the Sierra on the southwest side of Tahoe--this is one of the trailheads) is supposed to be the most-used wilderness area, per unit area, in the US. But it turned out that nearly all the traffic was for the overlook over Emerald Bay, on the other side of the highway. We didn't have the trail completely to ourselves, but it wasn't bad. So we ended up being happy we followed thru.

The absence of crowds is one reason we tend to go east into Nevada a lot, tho. No permits necessary on the wilderness areas there! ;)
