Introduction
Lake Tahoe is one of America's most beautiful alpine lakes. On the California-Nevada border at ~1,897 m elevation, it is ~501 m deep (America's second-deepest) with stunning clarity (visible to ~23 m) and emerald-blue water surrounded by snowy peaks — America's most popular four-season resort. Crystal-clear water; emerald-blue lake surrounded by snow peaks and coniferous forests. Summer (Jun-Sep) — swimming, kayaking, sailing, hiking and mountain biking. Winter (Dec-Mar) — world-class skiing (Heavenly, Squaw Valley). North shore quieter; south shore more resort facilities. Visiting for North America's clearest alpine lake is an intoxicating California experience.
