My wife and i used to live in this area so we always like to bring newbies here for some exploring. Parking is easy to find, right off 89. Typically the lot is packed in the summer but not so much in the fall. A short, flat walk towards the beach will get you to the old "estates" which are fun to photograph and peruse. I've never taken the tour not have I ever been inside any of them, but it is doable. Depending on water level, the beach could be very small or nicely large. It is always beautiful though. This part will take you about an hour at most. One thing we like to do is hike from the parking lot towards 89, cross the highway, and head towards Fallen Leaf Lake. The trail starts at 89 where Taylor Creek crosses under. There is a road sign for a Sno-Park where the trail starts. Stay on the dirt road to the right, about a half mile of walking will take you to a small parking area. At this point, go through the cutout in the fence and you are on your way to the lake. The trail pretty much stays next to Taylor Creek most of the way. It is fairly flat and easy to navigate. On this trip we did see a mother bear with her Cubs, so be advised. Great family hike. About 30 minutes at most from Tallac Historical.

Wyland has several Galleries in Hawaii, California, Nevada and Florida. The feature about half a dozen artists besides Wyland himself. I've been in many of them and all have pleasant knowledgeable art consultants that will send time with you to find a piece of art or souvenir to meet you budget. One of the nice things about Wyland's Galleries is they have inexpensive prints and jewlery, as well as limited edition artwork and statues.and a few originals that can run into real money (like the cost of a car real, but if your shopping for an original you know that). This Gallery will happily let you wander and look at your leisure, not hanging over you shoulder, or spend quality time with you to find things not necessarily on display. A couple of years ago they help me find a piece that had not been released, but because they work closely with Wyland they new was coming and would be in pre-publication in the near future. It was exactly what I was looking for and it arrive a few months later , and I appreciate that they went out of their way to help me find what I was looking for.

This gallery has a very good selection of artists and a good selection of items at various prices. The monthly Art Walk was here and featured the incredible watercolor artist Erik Christensen. Food items, wine and champagne were served in a very relaxing atmosphere--not high pressure. The artist was readily available to talk and discuss his works as well as actually working live on a new piece. It was a snowy day outside which made for a beautiful backdrop to this event.
