Anyone have favorite crags in the Lake Tahoe region that are ideal for toprope soloing? I will be by myself so I'd prefer a hike to set up anchors vs. soloing an easier route.

Any input is appreciated.

The meaning is unclear to me in your second to last sentence.

Never mind, I get it now . I have little experience in the area other than lovers leap but I anticipate the response of others more knowledgeable.

90 foot wall for south lake

Snowshed for north lake. Green phantom is good for easier laps.

Depends on the length of your rope.

From Sac, Cosumnes works pretty well. Not the best place, but solo-TR's are really easy to set up.

For easy stuff you can't beat Hogsback if you have a long rope. I have a 100m and you can hike up on easy/safe ground, set the anchors (most will have a solid tree so you don't even need gear, just webbing/cord and biners for anchors), rap down, and then climb up the fixed rope.

there's a few easy access top anchors at Indian Springs, depending on how hard you are trying to climb, but a few mid 10s of quality there.
