Emerald Bay, Lake Tahoe, California
Emerald Bay, Lake Tahoe, California

Lake Tahoe is the largest freshwater lake in the Sierra Nevada and the largest alpine lake in North America. Lake Tahoe is so clear that in some places, objects can be seen in depths of over 70 feet. One reason is that 40 percent of precipitation falling into the Lake Tahoe Basin falls directly upon the Lake. The remaining precipitation drains through marshes and meadows, which are a good filtering system for water. This summer vista is at the top near the entrance to one of the best parks on the California side Emerald Bay. There is great hiking here and you can brave the cold lake water for a swim, as well as kayak and canoe. Lake Tahoe is the third deepest lake in North America and the tenth deepest in the world.

Here is a great nature video with music to add to the wonder of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. flic.kr/p/2mMT8Yj
