Lake Tahoe Trip: Ponderosa Ranch (Part II)

5 July 1984

Our day at the Ponderosa Ranch of Bonanza fame started out with a horseback ride and a chuckwagon breakfast.  (Click here to read the post.)  Afterwards, we explored the would-be Virginia City and toured the Cartwright Ranch.

The Ponderosa Ranch is no more.  Having outlived most of the series' original cast, it was permanently closed in 2004.
