Brackett wins first SUP race of season at El Dorado Beach

More than 40 people competed in the standup paddleboard race Wednesday night at El Dorado Beach.

Some were hunched over as they paddled hard to the marker and back to the shore.

Lake Tahoe was calm and the air warm as they competed.

The May 30 race was close, with Julianne Brackett placing first and Tom Gandt a close second.
