:''For other locations, see Lover's Leap'' }} Lover's Leap is a steep granite cliff band, a landmark which catches the eye as one travels by, and a popular destination for climbers. The origin of its name is unknown, but common to most Lover's Leaps, one version from local folklore says two Native Americans lovers leapt to their deaths from the summit.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/eldorado/learning/history-culture/?cid=FSBDEV7_019089 )〕 ==Geography== The cliffs of Lover's Leap run horizontally through the Eldorado National Forest for over a third of a mile (0.6 km), with heights between 250–600 feet (76–183 m). The formation faces towards the northwest, and lie just south of Route 50, between Lake Tahoe and Sacramento. The historic Pony Express trail roughly parallels Route 50, and runs directly beneath Lover's Leap. The closest major urban center is the Tahoe area about 10 miles to the northeast. The cliff is at the northern terminus of a sloping ridge that runs southwest for six miles to the peak of Little Round Top. The Forest Service operates the nearby Lover's Leap Campground,〔(Lover's Leap Campground )〕 and the historic Strawberry Lodge is also nearby.〔(Strawberry Lodge )〕
