Tahoe Forest Stewardship days are held each spring and fall to help improve the health of Lake Tahoe and the areas around it.
The League to Save Lake Tahoe and the Forest Service met up at Tallac Historic Site in South Lake for some beautification projects on Saturday.
Other than picking up trash and restoring tables and benches, they restored and created walking trails for people to use so they don't harm the area by creating their own trails.
"This beautification really helps people enjoy the area, enjoy Tallac Historic Site and enjoy Lake Tahoe and want to take care of it," said the Communication Director of Keep Tahoe Blue, Marilee Movius. "It's really cool to see all the volunteers out here today being a part of it, hands on."
These stewardship days are Tahoe's longest running ecosystem restoration events.
Besides today's projects, the group also plants trees, stabilizes stream banks and works to prevent invasive species from taking over.
The volunteers and organizers are a tight knit group that is always looking to expand.
"The public lands are in public hands," said Volunteer Andrew Pavlu. "So, I feel like it is important for everyone to know that these opportunities exist."
