Pt. 7860 (W6/NS-177) SOTA Activation 8/8/2012

Pt. 7860 is located above Lake Of The Woods in Tahoe National Forest. To get to Lake Of The Woods, drive up I-80 to Truckee. Take the Highway 89 North Sierraville exit and drive about 17 miles north on Highway 89. Turn left on the paved road that goes to Jackson Meadows Reservoir (the turnoff has a clear sign). Approximately 7 miles up the road, turn right on the well maintained dirt road that goes to Lake Of The Woods (it also has a sign). The road is about 2-3 miles long and a 2WD passenger car should have no problem with it in summer or fall. In winter or spring, the paved road to Jackson Meadows Reservoir is not plowed so you will need a snowmobile or cross-country skis.
