Time: 10:00 am
Location: Little Washoe Lake - go past the pay hut, go straight down hill, keep going straight on dirt road at the end of the parking lot for the beach, continue around Little Washoe Lake taking the bends to the right. Pull off where you want to paint or go the end where the dirt parking is and the bathroom (it is open)
Directions to Little Washoe Lake: From Virginia Street/Mount Rose Highway intersection, take 395 south about 6 miles. After you pass through Pleasant Valley you will go up a hill (Washoe Hill). At the top, turn left on East Lake Boulevard. Almost immediately you will cross a cattle guard and then turn right into the park entrance. There is an entrance fee year-round, but you can take your chances. See above for how to go to the south end.
It is slightly muddy-slick in some areas near the water. Today I visited (Dec 6) and took these pictures. A large herd of wild horses came down to drink at the lake.
