Hwy 50 from Tahoe to Sacramento

Our daughter lives in San Fran and we always take 395 from the south to avoid all the western side traffic. We exit at Gardnerville and pick up 88 to 89 to 50. It's a beautiful easy drive with our 40' MH. This puts you on the southern end of Tahoe. We've never traveled on 89 on the western side of Tahoe. We do avoid Hwy 50 on weekends though - lots of RVs and general traffic at that time.

We love 550 in Colorado, too, and Hwy 50 in Calif doesn't even come close!
