Eagles Nest
Just across the creek from
Eagle Creek Cliffs you will find Eagles Nest, another one of the
excellent walls hiding in plain sight in Eagle Creek Canyon. We have
yet to climb there but do have a photo or two from climbing at Eagle
Creek Cliffs. We'll get on the rock shortly.

Directions
- From South Lake Tahoe
head north on 89 from the Y. Park at
the Eagle
Falls parking area. Parking is $5 inside the parking area or free on
the roadside parking areas. All of the Eagle Canyon areas start
here.Head up the Eagle Lake trail and when you get to the lake, follow
the trail to the left to the Eagle Lake Cliffs.Instead of going up the
talus to the cliffs, stay low and cross the stream once it gets to be a
stream rather than part of the lake. The cliffs are directly uphill.
