Tahoe side points of interest

Both Placer County and the Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit (LTBMU) are looking for a list of Tahoe side points of interest along the east half of the trail within Placer County.

The LTBMU is putting together a new map for the staging area and would like to add these points. I think Placer wants them for a map for their website.

Here is what I have so far, please let me know what I’ve missed or if you call any of these by a different name:
