September California Trip
9/11/2024  •  Emerald Bay • Lake Tahoe, CA 

   1st stop today - Emerald Bay   

Drove all the way through the Sierras from west to east to get here.  

Tried flying my drone - got a short video and a couple of pics.  And almost lost my drone.  

The wind today was blowing so hard.  I had it at about 135 feet directly

above me and within minutes it had drifted away 55 feet.  

I brought it down to about 35' and moved it behind a tree (to block the wind some).  

When I was sure I once again had full control, I lowered it down to about 10', flew it back

across the highway (no cars coming) and landed it on the roof of the car.
