LAKE TAHOE
Reno trip, cont.Is there a future for Lake-Pointing? Our Reno trip took us to beautiful, cold, clear Lake Tahoe. In our Chev Cobalt rental, now approaching 1500 added odometer miles, we circum-drove 80% of the lake, catching the essence of the area 100% while trying to ignore the commercialism/hype and the sight of expensive homes we could never afford (jealousy).

Lake Tahoe's geo-stats are impressive: deep, wide, long, etc., and a contender for the highest U.S. lake, or alpine lake, "of it's size" depending on which stats you read. At 6225ft at surface level, what are the possibilities for wet GeoXtremes?

Below are nitty-grittty info links:
