Palisades Tahoe Gold Coast Funitel Top has a center with a huge platform looking out over the resort and basin. It's got great views and, when open, great amenities.

Donner Pass sits at an elevation of 7,056 feet above Donner Lake. The pass was originally used by the California Trail and America's first transcontinental railroad. It is named after the ill-fated Donner Party, who overwintered there in 1846.

Great view onto the Tahoe National Forest. The view spot is only a small distance down a trail off the PCT, so it is definitely worth the extra effort.

Barker Pass is the junction for Baker Pass Road, Baker Meadow, FR 15N38 and the Pacific Crest Trail. Barker Pass is up FR 15N38 just 50 feet north of this junction. Barker Pass Road continues on, but this spot is pretty close to Barker Peak and is a great rest spot with benches to sit on and a pit toilet.

The PCT follows along the ridge with long distance views, and then drops here off the ridge to descend further to Donner Pass. Snow can linger on the north side into Spring.

At Barker Pass, you will find picnic benches, a pit toilet, and some nice protected camp spots. This trailhead is also a possible location for trail magic.

Very short spur from the PCT leads to this sweeping overlook, well worth a minute to enjoy the views. The historic pass was one of the routes explored by early immigrants, and later by miners.

The old Hwy 40 passed through this summmit at 7135 ft elevation, still today the Donner Pass Road. Fast and heavy traffic of course goes over the I-80 interstate freeway a couple of miles north. Also the site of German BierGarten Restaurant "Summit Haus" open from mid June to Labor Day (early September) 11am-4pm, part of Sugar Bowl Resort
