On site is a U. S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service Camera Point. An embedded disk similar to the ones placed by National Geodetic Survey. This disk is embedded with the USDA Forest Service Camera Point identification. These have been used to take photos over a period of time to show any changes in the forest area.
You gain access to the beach by entering the Baldwin Beach recreation area of the Forest Service of Emerald Bay Road on the west side of Lake Tahoe. If you continue northward you will be rewarded with a view of Emerald Bay and waterfalls.
From the 'camera point' you will have an excellent view of the shoreline and mountain range just west of Lake Tahoe
