Webber Lake is a beautiful mountain lake with a reputation for great fishing. It was once a stop on the Henness Pass Road for stage visitors and freight haulers between California’s gold fields and Nevada’s silver mines. The Webber Lake Hotel was built in the 1860’s and still stands on the property today. The property has been in one family’s holdings for over 100 years. The family sold its holdings in November of 2012 to the Nature Conservancy and Truckee Donner Land Trust to preserve its pristine beauty and not have it developed. Calls from sandhill crane, coyote and other animals echo over the lake as sunset paints the surrounding peaks orange and purple. The location provides the perfect base camp to explore nearby Perazzo Meadows, Mt. Lola, Independence Lake, the Pacific Crest Trail, Webber Falls and Sierra Valley to the north.
